Remember these............
Well I had just enough squares to make this...........................
A beautiful pillow cover...............................
Five rounds.......double crochet............makes these cute squares...........
Now the big question...................
How do I attach these squares.......................
I used 3 different methods.....................
On the front of the pillow cover I used a double crochet method........adding a chain of
If I'm not describing this correctly see the close up of the stitches............
Now the back squares I wanted to be different so I edged each square in a single crochet..
then I single crocheted them together, one by one as seen here..................
Now I wanted to leave an opening for the pillow form so I single crocheted the opening
closed working in from each side leaving an opening......................
Once I finished the front and back I laid right sides together grabbed my darning needle and
my white yarn and sewed then together. This gives it a clean finish without the lumps or ridges.
Turned it right side out then..........
I used white ribbon to close the opening........................
I love how I can use this pillow displaying both sides.......................
When creating I choose different options to attach granny squares together...
Do you!!!!!!
