I love this diamond pillow with the warm fall colors in red, orange and yellow. It is a beautiful item to decorate your home. Do you prefer other colors, choose 3 colors that suits your home, maybe black, gray and white as shown on some photos.

This pillow is made with the same technique used for Mochila bags. You have to crochet this pillow with two colors at the same time and with the ‘yarn under’ technique.

This crochet pattern includes detailed written instructions needed to make this cushion. It’s written in English (US and UK terms) and in Dutch, has a diagram of the diamond pattern and useful tips & tricks.

The pillow will be approx. 48 cm/18.9 inch high and 49 cm/ 19.3 inch wide

Skill level - intermediate (if you don’t know this technique then it is a difficult pattern)

The stitches that are used are:
American: Single Crochet and Slipstitch (Hook C2 = 2.5 mm hook)
English: Double Crochet and Slipstitch (Hook 12 = 2.5 mm hook)
Dutch: Vaste and Halve Vaste (Hook 2,5 mm)

Used yarn: sport / 4 ply
