Add a bit of chunkiness to your home with this cute and easy stool cover!

Over the last couple of years, I’ve discovered just how handy stools are. It’s a seat that you can move around that also doubles as a side table, a coffee table or even an I-need-to-put-my-crochet-project-somewhere table (and we all need somewhere to put our crochet).

I was out walking one day and I was hit with the inspiration for a chunky cover for my stools. It turns out that it’s easy to make, it’s removable and reversible and it looks fantastic. What more could a stool loving girl want!

As I was designing this stool and cover I felt into how grounded and dependable it was. It’s a solid and reliable piece of furniture that feels totally connected to the earth and the simple design reflects this. The double crochet stitches of the top look beautiful as they increase each round. They’re joined by a simple side of treble that is drawn together by a drawstring.

How big is it?
The cover is designed to fit a stool with a diameter of approximately 35cm (13.8inch) and a depth of 2cm (0.8inch). It has been designed to fit the Mocka Hudson Stool and the Ikea Frosta Stool.

What do I need?
2 skeins of Homelea Bliss yarn, 15.75mm ChiaGoo jumbo crochet hook, tape measure, scissors, felting kit (optional), yarn swift (optional) and stitch markers (optional).

What is included in the pattern?
– written instructions in UK and US terminologies
– crochet chart
– step by step photos
– full email support

I hope you enjoy bringing your Grounded Stool to life and that it makes you feel good too.

With love, Lynda.
