Love mushrooms and cats? Well now you can have both together! Make an adorable Mushroom Stool Cover for your cat tree or bar stool, or a Mushroom Pillow Cover for your kitties (or yourself) with this fun duo pattern!

Update October 2023: I have just updated the pattern to now include photos for BOTH left-hand and right-hand crocheters! 2 pdfs will be provided together upon purchase, one for left-hand crocheters, and one for right-hand crocheters. <3

  • The pattern follows diameter cover sizes from 9-13”, and includes suggestions on how to adjust pattern for covers larger than 13”.
  • This pattern includes 2 versions: the mushroom stool cover and mushroom pillow cover. The mushroom stool cover is for a circular cat tree stool or a bar stool, which will require measuring.
  • The pattern is written in US terminology
  • Includes lots of photos and suggestions for both left-hand and right-hand crocheters!
  • Recommended for advanced beginners
  • Note: the pattern does not include how to make a pillow, just the pillow cover. (I made my pillow with an old t-shirt and stuffing!)
