How to crochet cable stitch pillow

November 28, 2019

In this tutorial you will learn to crochet cable stitch and make a pillow. I would say it’s an intermediate level project needing some extra focus and practice. If you enjoy learning new crochet stitches as much as I do, then this project is perfect for you!

Crocheted cables look just as nice as knitted ones, and it’s another reason I love crocheting so much because there are endless techniques and stitches to create something beautiful.

Lion Brand yarn Coboo is my new favorite because it’s half cotton and half rayon from bamboo. It makes a beautiful soft home decor item like my pillow, but I’ve also made hats with it and I love the look and feel.
