Summer Welcome Pillow Crochet Pattern

Hello crochet friends! Rachel Alford from Cozy Nooks Designs here. I am a crochet & knit designerblogger, YouTuber and Crochet Instructor.

Today I am going to share with you a new tapestry crochet pattern – the Summer Welcome Pillow!

You may recognize this design because I made a similar Fall Winter Welcome Pillow, Valentine’s St Patrick’s Welcome Pillow, and Spring Easter Welcome Pillow which you can check out HERE and HERE and HERE. If you want to make sure you don’t miss out on future free patterns, make sure you are subscribed to my newsletter. The Summer Welcome Pillow is considered an intermediate pattern. I have some YouTube and blog posts with different crochet techniques to aid you, so don’t be intimidated by it! These will be linked throughout the post.


Materials:

14 sc sts = 4″ , 16 rows = 4″

Notes

I have a full Video Tutorial outlining how to make this crochet pillow, and you can view it below.

So let’s grab our hooks and get started! Using MC, ch 69

Row 1: sc 1 in 2nd ch from hook, sc across, turn (68 sts)

Rows 2-14: ch 1, MC sc 68, turn

Row 15: ch 1, MC sc 3, CC1 sc 6, MC sc 1, CC1 sc 2, MC sc 7, CC1 sc 2, MC sc 5, CC2 sc 6, MC sc 3, CC1 sc 4, MC sc 2, CC1 sc 5, MC sc 1, CC1 sc 6, MC sc 2, CC1 sc 1, MC sc 7, CC1 sc 1, MC sc 4, turn

At this point, I find the chart much easier to follow than the written instructions. If you’d like to continue with the line-by-line instructions, skip below.   Some important notes about the chart:
