A delicate vine wanders gracefully up one side of this cozy pillow, paired with colorful plaid on the other side. Embellish the vine with crochet flowers, leaves, and surface crochet. Surface crochet also completes the vertical lines in the plaid. With two gorgeous sides, it’s hard to decide which one to show!
