Back to school is around the corner- for us here in Canada, we don’t go back until after Labour Day. That hasn’t stopped me though… I’m already thinking of all the chunky makes and (dare I say….) autumn things? I’m not quite in full blown “pumpkin spice” mode—but I’ve definitely busted out some cozier yarns to play with. This pillow was one of them! I’ve used a super chunky yarn to make a 20” pillow here—I’m imagining so many combinations. I love the simplicity of all one colour and how it lets the textured sunbursts shine. I imagine, this would also be adorable in seasonal colours to match any décor.

Something I get asked often is: “Do I have to use JAYG (join as you go) or CJAYG (continuous join as you go) to join my squares?” The answer? -No! Of course not, there are many beautiful ways to join squares! This pillow pattern is meant to encourage those who haven’t made a pillow yet to try (because the above-mentioned methods may seem intimidating to first time crocheters). These squares are just slip stitched together and the result is a perfectly squishy pillow you can feel good about. Not only are the colour options endless-the sunburst squares always fill me with joy.

This pattern is written for pillow size 20x20” square in super chunky weight yarn. I used Lion Brand Re-Spun Thick & Quick for my grey pillow and a size 9.00mm hook. -Any super chunky weight yarn will work, as long as gauge is met.

New Christmas coloured pillows have been added to the pattern. The holiday colours are Lion Brand Wool Ease Thick & Quick (106yds/170g).

Pattern will include:

  • yarn amounts/quantities.
  • gauge.
  • stitch glossary.
  • printable pdf.
  • schematic for pillow
  • written instructions for sunburst granny square
  • video tutorial for the sunburst granny square used, the slip stitch method of joining squares and seaming for the pillow panel.

Happy Crocheting Everyone!
