My Boho Rainbow Pillow is composed of nine granny squares. Over the summer, I made a boho rainbow garland, so I thought it would be fun to make a pillow version! Boho rainbows are a little bit different from typical rainbows as they are very tall and skinny, and they are usually composed of neutral colors with lots of pink and yellow. However, feel free to play around with different color combinations with these rainbows! I used Rowan Summerlite DK yarn: 1 powder pink, 1 summer, 1 rouge, 1 nutkin, 1 duckling, and 2 plaster. I also used 2 balls of Patons Grace in the shade natural for the cream. However, any dk weight yarn will work! You will also need a 14 by 14 in (35 by 35 cm) pillow insert, and five buttons (1.5 cm in diameter). The buttons allow the pillow to be taken on and off of the insert. The written pattern includes round by round pictures for the boho rainbow granny square, and a few more pictures to explain the steps.
