This candy cane pillow adds both joy and cosy, functional comfort to your home during the festive season. Crocheted in soft chenille yarn with a classic spiralling stripe, it’s a fantastic and cheerful project to whip up when the holidays are just around the corner.

The finished pillow measures 75 cm / 29½ inches at its tallest point and 36 cm / 14¼ inches at its widest. You can easily lengthen the straight sections to create a longer version. (Just remember it will require more yarn if you do so!)

Tools:
6mm (US J/10) crochet needle, tapestry needle, and stitch markers.

Yarn:
Hobbii Honey Bunny - 100g/3.5oz = 120m/131 yds per ball.

Main Colour (MC) - White - White (01) - 2 balls.
Contrasting Colour (CC) - Red - Bordeaux (43) - 2 balls.

Polyester filling (approx 700g but you can use less if you like a softer pillow. I used filling from an Ikea INNER pillow 65cmx65cm and it was the perfect amount.)
