My Retro Daisies Pillow is composed of granny squares. I really enjoyed making this pillow because it combines two of my favorite things: daisy granny squares and Hobbii Rainbow Cotton 8/6 yarn in the shade old rose. It is one of my favorite pink yarns because it reminds me of vintage pink buttercream frosting.
I used Rainbow Cotton 8/6: 4 old rose, 3 vanilla, 1 pastel yellow, and 1 lime. It is a sport weight yarn; however, you can use any sport or dk weight yarn for this pillow. If you are using a different yarn, after you have finished crocheting the front side of the pillowcase, measure it, and then it will fit a pillow insert that is one to two inches longer than it.
Additionally, you will need an 18 by 18 in (46 by 46 cm) pillow insert, and 5 buttons (1.5 cm in diameter). The buttons allow the pillowcase to be taken on and off the insert. The pattern includes some pictures to demonstrate the steps. I hope you enjoy the pattern!

Update: There is now a video tutorial for the daisy granny square on my YouTube channel, daisygirlcrochet, so I have added the link to the pattern!
