Crochet Pillow Patterns

Crochet pillow patterns make covers for standard pillow forms, commonly 16, 18, or 20 inches square, or round cushions. Make the cover about one inch smaller than the form so it fills out firmly. Granny squares, bobbles, and textured stitches are popular, and the back can be crocheted, fabric, or closed with buttons.

What size should a crochet pillow cover be?

A crochet pillow cover should be about one inch smaller than the pillow form on each side of measurement, so an 18-inch form suits a 17-inch cover. Crochet fabric stretches, and a snug cover looks plump rather than baggy.

Frequently asked questions

How do I close a crochet pillow cover?

Join the last side with single crochet around the inserted form, or add buttons for a removable cover.

What yarn works for pillows?

Worsted acrylic, wool blends, or cotton; acrylic is easiest to wash.
