Get ready to fall in love with this adorable heart-shaped pillow! Perfect for those who are comfortable with the basics of crochet and are looking to level up their skills. Don’t worry, though, it’s still totally doable for advanced beginners!

I’ve carefully designed this pattern to allow you to enjoy the texture and whimsy of decorative yarn without any unnecessary hassle or frustration. You’ll be using the ‘Peacock’ yarn to surface crochet onto the ‘post’ of stitches from the rounds created with Honey Bunny yarn, making it a breeze to navigate – much simpler than having to search for your stitches!

Surface Fluff! 💗

Designing is all about bringing out the best in your materials, I am inspired to change the way I work when presented with new yarn; getting creative and always thinking how I can make it easy for the user to crochet with it.

Seeing the stitches from a previous round when using this type of yarn is very difficult, so you will be pleased to know that I have developed this pattern so you can get the texture and fun of the decorative yarn, without the pain!

You will be surface crocheting into the ‘post’ of the stitches from the rounds that have been made using Honey Bunny yarn, which means that you will only do one round, but this will be shaped by the stitches that you will crochet into, giving a heart shaped round of fluff. Here is a short video on how to add the fluff!
