✿ Looks knit, cozies up any couch

The Nutmeg Pillow is quick to work up and makes beautiful home decor. Those stitches look knit, but they’re all crochet, worked in the round. I love figuring out new stitch combinations that mimic that knit look.

I kept it simple in style and color so it works as a staple all year round. Want to spruce it up? Change colors every so often to add stripes. It’s free on my blog too.
