C2c Crochet Pillow

"Looking for a super squishy crochet pillow pattern? Check out the easy c2c crochet pillow – perfect for a dorm or kid’s room! This throw pillow is crocheted in two panels and slip stitched or single crocheted together. You can stuff it with fiberfill or do what I did, which is to use scrap yarn! Keep in mind that if you do this with smaller yarn you might need to place the yarn in pantyhose or fabric to keep the strands from escaping between stitches. I had two large skeins of the Pipsqueak Stripes and put the rest of my yarn in my pillow and it worked great. Talk about a yarn pillow! Haha! You can also use a pillow insert, which makes it even easier. Yarn: Bernat Pipsqueak Stripes (bulky yarn #5), 1 skein (could also substitute 3 skeins regular Pipsqueak yarn) Crochet Hook: US Size I/9 (5.5mm) Notions: Yarn needle/Tapestry needle, scissors, stuffing/stash yarn/pillow form"
