Notes

I made this pillow to go with my LOTR Afghan.

I charted the design from a photo of the famous “logo”
of Tolkien’s initials.

This was made in single crochet, with every other row done in single crochet in reverse. The colors were worked using the stranding method (I don’t care for the look of working over the unused yarn), so it is backed in brown. It is stitched on a 12x12 pillow form.
