I receive a lot of messages about how to make my pattern for little circus animal cookies bigger and pillow-sized. Unfortunately, there is no easy formula for that. Fortunately, I did all the work for you here!

This pink circus elephant cookie throw pillow is worked in rows. You will use single crochet, slip stitches, single crochet increases, and single crochet decreases (sc2tog) to create the shaping. I provide clear, thorough written instructions, photos, and this pattern even includes a chart to help you understand the shaping of the project.

The pattern is worked in bulky or super bulky yarn and an L/8.0mm crochet hook. I include a full materials list with clickable links. Also the gauge listed above is inaccurate, the the actual gauge I worked in was 12 sc x 14 rows = 5 inches x 5 inches (5 inches is not an option to select in the Ravelry system).

The finished pillow is about 21 inches wide, 14 inches tall, 3 1/2 inches thick.
