Round Crochet Cluster Stitch Pillow

Categories: Decor, Pillow, Crochet

This Round Crochet Cluster Stitch Pillow has a front made of rounds of cluster stitches worked in a pattern of 5 different colors. The back is made of rounds of half double crochet to create a more solid fabric. The two sides are joined using a single crochet stitch around the outside edge and a 14 inch round pillow insert is put inside as you are closing the pillow. I chose some bright pastel colors for my pillow because they give the pillow a springy feel but you could make it in any colors, use more colors, fewer colors, whatever you want.
