Watermelon Pillow
I thought I would try tpo be clever and take the name of a “watermelon” a little too literally and make it an actual WATERmelon. Get it? Because its in the shape of a raindrop! With summer just around the corner, what a fun accessory to have around the house! Here are the basic instructions on how to create your own, pretty quick and easy 🙂
This project was used all with Lion Brand Yarn!
This is worked in continuous rounds. It’s not a necessity, but it’s good to know how to do an Invisible Decrease to make the pillow look cleaner!
Materials: 9mm hook
Lion Brand Wool-Ease Thick and Quick
Polyester fiber fill
Scissors
Yarn needle
Â
Abbreviations: sc = single crochet
mr = magic ring
inc = increase (2 sc in next stitch)
