Are you going to make your own crochet candy cane pillow?!

[@user-sk6kd2nm7i]

I want it so bad... I will totally make it. ( but where is my red velvet yarn?!?!)

[@nomorewrap_630]

1st time that I have seen your channel. Love the plush candy cane. ❤

[@JustBeCrafty]

Hello and welcome!! And I'm so glad you enjoyed the tutorial!

[@whitneyworkman790]

Loved making this! Easy to follow for somebody who doesn’t crochet. I think I would’ve added one more row in the curve so it would bend a bit more if I did it again but I’m not sure how that would turn out since I’m new to crochet!

[@whitneyworkman790]

I made it! First crotchet project and your guidance helped me pull it off! Mine ended up a bit bigger as I can’t count but it looks like it should! Thank you!

[@JustBeCrafty]

Wonderful! Welcome to the world of crochet!🧶

[@marissavivian3711]

Made it last night for my boyfriends sister and her husband for Christmas ! Adorable I just added a few more sts in row 4 to make it bigger since I used bernat blanket yarn ! Came out super cute still

[@JustBeCrafty]

Yay! They are going to love it!🎄❤️🧶

Super cute! How would you wash this? I really want to make one but I have 2 dogs and they are always jumping on the couch lol

[@JustBeCrafty]

Good question! Hmm, I haven't tried washing it. From past experience, chenille/velvety yarns don't do the best in the wash. I'd also be afraid that the red might bleed into the white. So, I wouldn't recommend washing it. I also have two dogs that I let on the couch, so I'll usually remove the pillows when we are settled in on the couch for the night. I really only keep the pillows on the couch for show when I'm up and about during the day and when guests come over for parties/gatherings. Or I'll move them up and out of the way, when I'm not home so the doggies don't get to them.
And they are really only out for a few weeks of December a year and then they go back into storage with the rest of my holiday decorations.

Hi! I’m so excited about making my own! Do you use the whole 50m / 250 g of each color for each pillow? I’m trying to figure out how much to buy. Thank you!

[@JustBeCrafty]

You'll use up most of it! One ball each color should be all you need. Actually, in the video I show a ball of each color and that's what I had left over! You can find my supplies list here in the blog post: justbcrafty.com/2023/12/crochet-candy-cane-pillow-pattern.html Happy crocheting!
