• Finished measurements are as follows:
12” tall x 20” wide
• Beginning CH stitches do not count as a stitch.
• Pillow is made from two panels worked flat (back and forth in rows) from the bottom up. The panels are then seamed together using the mattress stitch.
• I chose to use the bobbin method to change colors. Seven bobbins are used for the front panel. Wind approximately 15 yards of MC on two bobbins, 30 yards of MC on two bobbins, and 35 yards of CC on three bobbins.
• When changing colors, pull the new color through to complete the stitch before the color change. Keep all tails on the WS of the work. Sometimes you will have to change color several stitches away from where the new color is. When this happens, just crochet around the loose strand.
• A graph of the front panel is included in your downloadable files if you prefer to use a graph versus line-by-line instructions. The graph is split onto two different pages.
