The Deciduous Throw Pillow is crocheted corner-to-corner using a modified wattle stitch—simple stitches and a beautiful texture. The addition of the leaves brings this pillow to life. Use rustic, earthy colours for the perfect piece of fall decor, or use vibrant shades of green for a gorgeous spring pillow!

The front and back of this pillow are crocheted exactly the same. The leaves are worked up individually in three sizes, then outlined and stitched using surface slip stitching. You can add as many leaves as you’d like!

This pillow is designed to be 13.5” square to fit a standard 14” pillow form or use stuffing. You can also easily modify this pattern to make any square-sized pillow.
