Pillow decor with knitting needles. Decorative knitted pillows for sofas, toys, covers: a diagram with a description, a photo

Crocheted pillows are not only attractive and individual, but also saving for already outdated and somewhat worn sofa cushions. If you are new to crochet, pillows are the best way to learn the technique. Here you do not have to do complex calculations, since with a properly selected pattern, there will be no problems with knitting. For the manifestation of imagination, several options for pillows should be presented, each of which will appeal to both a beginner and an experienced knitter. The article will provide detailed photos, diagrams and descriptions of several models.

We knit and care properly

Since a crochet crocheted pillow requires some care, points for further use should be discussed.

  • Firstly, the yarn for pillows should be chosen according to the concept of their purpose. For children's options, it is better to choose cotton or special children's yarn, which often includes bamboo. For sofa cushions in the living room, it is better to take acrylic - it is easier to wash it. If pillows are knitted for comfort and warming the lower back, of course, the choice is in favor of an admixture of wool.
  • Secondly, knitted pillows, due to their “naturalness”, will have to be washed more often, so it is recommended to knit products with a zipper along the seam. It turns out that for such a knitted pillow, you will have to additionally sew a cover or pillowcase, where the filler will be laid out.
  • Thirdly, crocheted sofa cushions should become an element of decor, so the color and shape are selected accordingly.

Craftswomen prefer knitted cushion covers, which can be used to "update" the old sofa elements. This can happen when changing the interior design, when the sofa does not change to a new one, but the color already “falls out” from the overall picture. This crochet pillowcase is conveniently removed and washed as it gets dirty. To do this, it is enough to sew a zipper along the seam. Wash the covers by hand or in the washing machine on a delicate wash program. Dry by spreading on a towel.

Pillows-napkins

If you have round-shaped sofa cushions, you can use the schemes of standard round-shaped napkins. Two napkins are also knitted here, when sewing together, an additional zipper is used. You can resort to a complete transformation and additionally sew a “lining” on the pillow, which will be in a contrasting color, which will give the product individuality, because the openwork will stand out against a plain background.

Some especially enterprising craftswomen completely replace obsolete products with new ones. They simply rip open the old sofa cushions and use the filler further. They also knit pillows in the form of a napkin, combine them with a plain background and form them using the same filler.

Below is a selection of such products with detailed patterns for self-knitting.






curvy pillows






When standard forms get bored, it is recommended to knit figured analogues. In order not to spend a lot of time on complex variations, it is enough just to resort to simple geometric shapes. For example, you can tie a star or a hexagon. If you want and need to tie the cover along the seam, it is better to make button fasteners - this will greatly simplify the process of sewing the zipper into the curly edge.

The following also offers a selection of figured pillows with patterns for knitting. Some of them will allow you to knit a denser fabric, through which the background lining will not show through. Others, on the contrary, offer an openwork figure, which is beneficial and softly suitable for a certain interior.

Pillows from motifs

Attractive and very interesting pillows made of motifs and the use of different colors. They reflect the brightness of the character of the owners of the house, as well as their positive attitude. This combination can be used for knitting children's products. Pillows from motifs connected in one scale or one color look no less attractive - they will complement the existing style of the interior.

Grandma's square in pillows

Crochet pillows from "Grandma's Square" is an excellent alternative to the famous rugs or carpets. There is nothing difficult in knitting, and the advantage is the ability to get rid of numerous yarn residues. For knitting a square, a standard pattern is used, and the combination of colors is optional. The following is a selection of such pillows, on the basis of which you can come up with your own version, taking into account the existing interior.






African flowers in pillows

Similar to the grandmother's square, there is an interesting pattern of the African flower. This motif also allows you to quickly get rid of the remnants of yarn and knit a colorful cover for an existing outdated pillow. Below is a selection of crocheted products, as well as a scheme for the independent embodiment of a masterpiece from motifs.

If you do not want to crochet colorful pillows with all the leftover yarn, you can use models where products are connected using only certain colors that match the existing interior design in the room. Often these are sofa cushions in minimalist or hi-tech styles, where only a contrasting combination of several colors is used, but comfort is created by adding textiles to the interior.




Pillows in love

Craftswomen who love to crochet love to present interesting souvenirs to their loved ones for anniversaries and just a Valentine's Day. A useful gift is a pillow that will be not only beautiful and soft, but also themed. Two options can be distinguished here - this is a heart and a sensational female breast.

Pillows on the sofa in the form of hearts

Heart-shaped sofa cushions are an easy-to-make, but very warm and important gift for a loved one. Hearts are also different - in this case, you will show that you put all the love and warmth from your heart into knitting a gift. In addition, knitted hearts are perfect for the interior of a children's room for girls. You can add various ribbons, rhinestones, beads and other girly charms to your work.






crochet chest

As a gift for a man or best friend, you can crochet a chest, for which a detailed master class is offered.

  1. To begin, knit two canvases of light yarn with single crochets - this is the base of the pillow. The breasts will be knitted with the same yarn. Having connected the base of a suitable size, sew it on three sides from the wrong side - you can use a needle or a hook.
  2. Start knitting the chest. To start with a pink thread, dial 3 air loops and lock them into a ring.
  3. Knit the first row - knit 10 single crochets. Knit 2 more rows without increases.
  4. Next, knit 3 more rows with single crochet, making increases in each previous column. Switch to a light thread.
  5. With a light thread, continue knitting without increments for the next 2 rows. Next, knit 5 rows, increasing in them through each single crochet.
  6. Knit 7 more rows already without additions. Cut the thread so that it is long enough to sew the chest to the base. Tie the second chest in the same way.

Sew the breasts to the base, after filling them with cotton wool or padding polyester. For originality, you can tie a bra - this way the pillow looks less defiant, but at the same time very pretty.



It sounds amazing, but such pillows are in demand not only because of their originality. The pillows are comfortable - the head fits neatly and steadily between the breasts. And what? - Not a bad alternative for men!

pillow toys

From crocheted breast pillows, you can smoothly move on to toy forms. Crocheted toy pillows attract children and adults like them for their convenience - this is both a convenient thing on which you can just relax, and at the same time an interesting toy. Choosing knitting a certain form should be based on the age and preferences of the child. If you want to knit a pillow for the interior, be guided by the general design concept and color inclusions.

simple toys



If we consider crochet toys, we can find a very interesting detail - most of them are presented in the form of simple circles and oblong legs, the combination of which in the finished result gives a toy incarnation. The following is a similar selection, on the basis of which you can use simple knitting patterns and please your child with a new “acquisition”.

turtle toy


Since crochet toys are popular, the simplest version of knitting, which is offered with a description and patterns, should be presented - this is turtle knitting. Independent knitting of a turtle is carried out in the following sequence:

The following is a selection of crochet turtles. Such products are convenient in further use for their intended purpose, so they are suitable for both children's rooms and sofa additions.



Pillow snake

For children, there is nothing better than a 2 in 1 product - both a toy and a pillow. One of these innovative ideas is the crocheted snake pillow - it is easy to knit from leftover yarn. Also, the snake toy is suitable for the manifestation of one's own imagination, because the use of shades of threads or patterns allows you to profitably complement the children's room. Knitting such a pillow occurs in the sequence:

  1. Close 5 air loops in a ring.
  2. Work the first row with 10 single crochets.
  3. Then, in the next 10-20 rows, make the same additions of columns - it depends on the size of the future snake, so adjust the work yourself. The additions are made evenly - in each row, from 7 to 13 columns should be added.
  4. Having reached the desired head size, knit 2 to 5 rows without additions.
  5. Next, make reductions, similar to the addition done earlier. Only half of the added loops are reduced.
  6. Continue knitting for the desired length of the snake without a tail.
  7. Having reached the desired length of the snake without a tail, proceed to decrease - in each row, make decreases of 3-6 loops.
  8. Having knitted up to 4-5 single crochets, finish knitting.

Thus, you have a complete selection of knitted pillows with patterns and descriptions. Now you can choose for yourself a more interesting option, as well as come up with something original. Feel free to show your imagination, because knitting is the best way to designate your "I".

Knitting a pillow with knitting needles is possible even for a beginner needlewoman. It is also a great opportunity to practice knitting complex patterns with knitting needles. Indeed, when knitting large products, it is important to observe the same knitting density. And if you have not yet reached this level, then train on simple things: hats, covers, caps - that's it.

What model of pillow with knitting needles to choose?

The pillow cover can be one-sided, that is, you only knit the front part of the pillow with knitting needles, while sewing the back side of a dense fabric. The front part can be connected with complex patterns: braids, arans, and the reverse side is simply a front surface. If you choose an openwork, airy pattern for the pillow, then you need to sew a fabric cover as a lining.

Recently, pillows made of knitted yarn or T-yarn have been very popular. A pillow knitted from knitted yarn looks spectacular, even if you choose a simple pattern: front, back surface. But, the knitted yarn is quite thick and it will not work to knit a small pillow.

interesting selection on the site Plaids for newborns and toddlers

Choosing the shape of the pillow cover:

  • a rectangle that folds in half is sewn tightly on 2 sides, and a zipper or buttons are sewn on the third side;
  • two squares that are sewn tightly on three sides, a zipper or other fastener is sewn into the fourth side;
  • The cover closes with an overlap (on buttons).

How to get started?

You need to take measurements from the pillow, even better not from the pillow, but from its pillowcase. Add 1 cm to the measurements on the sides where the seam is planned and 1-1.5 cm on the side where the clasp for the knitted pillow is planned. If the cover will be fastened with an overlap, then the length of one side should be 30 percent more.

Determine the density of knitting

Take a yarn of suitable thickness and knitting needles. We hope that you already know how to select knitting needles for yarn. If not, follow the instructions on the yarn label. Knit a 10*10 cm swatch with the pattern you chose for the knitted pillow. Wash the sample, dry it and take measurements, count the number of loops you need to dial for the cover and start knitting. When your case is ready, do not forget to fly off the WTO of the finished product.

Knitted pillow - sheep. Anna's work

Hello! My name is Anna. I love to crochet children's (and not only) toys. As a gift for the New Year 2015, I knitted such a pillow toy for my eldest daughter. In this case, it's a pajama cover.

The body is knitted with knitting needles No. 6 from “Grass” yarn in the form of a pipe. It is convenient that the fabric stretches. The rest of the body is crocheted with acrylic yarn No. 3.5. As a filler I used a special filler for toys. The muzzle is embroidered.

The back of the toy is tied with a satin ribbon so that the cover can be tied. The description was found on the Internet, taken from some Japanese, apparently, magazine. It was not all clear, so in the course of work I constantly had to redo and adjust something, so ... probably the author's toy is already.

PUBLISH YOUR WORK

I had a homemade pillow without a pillowcase for quite a long time. And it's a pity to throw it away and have nowhere to adapt it. The idea came to mind that you can knit a cover for her and give a pillow to a cat! 🙂 She loves all sorts of soft beds! I chose the most simple pattern. So, let's see step by step photos of how to knit a pillowcase on a pillow with knitting needles!

We will need:

  1. Pillow
  2. Yarn
  3. spokes
  4. Hook
  5. decorative beads

This pillow could not find its purpose! Inside it is stuffed with foam rubber and synthetic winterizer. In general, knitting a pillowcase on a pillow with knitting needles is much easier than it seems!

The size of my pillow is 40 * 45 cm. In order to save yarn, I purchased the cheapest skeins for 19 rubles / piece. I needed 12 skeins of dark green and 1 skein of light green thread for tying and buttons. I decided to knit in 2 parts from bottom to top in width.

Cast on 95 stitches

Front side

  1. We remove the first loop and knit 18 loops with front stitch
  2. Next, knit 19 purl loops
  3. We continue to alternate 19 loops of facial / purl. We knit the last loop on the wrong side, regardless of the pattern.

purl

  1. We knit according to the pattern. Do not forget that the first loop is always removed, and the last loop is knitted on the wrong side.

We should get 5 "blanks" for the squares. We knit such a number of rows that we get an even square and change the pattern, starting from the front side.

We continue knitting to the end of the length of the pillow.

We close the loops! We knit 2 loops together and re-shoot the resulting loop on the working knitting needle. Again we knit 2 loops together. We continue to the end.

We tie our half. We need a skein of the required color and a hook. We knit the work with a single crochet.

Here's what we get! 🙂

By the same principle, we knit part 2. We finish the square with an elastic band 2 through 2. Don't forget about the buttonholes! I knitted 6 loops according to the elastic pattern, then cast off 6 loops and continued knitting according to the pattern (7 loops). Then again closing 6 loops and so on. In the wrong side we throw our closed 6 loops on the knitting needle. The front row must be knitted according to the gum pattern. Do not forget that the length of the second part should be approximately 1 full square longer than the first. In general, it is better to look at work. We should get a full overlap on the first part of the button cushion. We close the loops and tie the work.

These are the holes for the buttons we should get.

Don't forget to tie the buttonholes. Next, we connect the two parts from the wrong side with a light green thread with a single crochet.

We should get such a cover.

We knit buttons

We take a hook and the necessary yarn. We collect 6 air loops.

We make a ring. To do this, we need to knit a working loop through the first loop with a single crochet.

There should be a column like this.

We begin to knit our ring with single crochets.

Insert the hook into the center of the ring and pull up the thread. We get 2 loops. We stretch the working thread through them.

We've got this ring.

We make a rise for the second row.

We knit another circle only with a double crochet!

Here we knit 3 loops at a time.

Fashion is changing, the shape and design of furniture are changing, but regardless of the time today, as a hundred years or a couple of centuries ago, pillows delighted their owners and their guests.

Children and adults, sofas, rectangular, round, oval, in the form of a roller ... Probably, it is difficult to find something that creates a cozy atmosphere and sets you in a peaceful mood than decorative pillows. At the same time, it doesn’t even matter what they lie on, on a luxurious bed, sofa or on stools in the kitchen.

However, perhaps one can say with special warmth - it is knitted or crocheted pillows that differ in charm.

It can be a warm and fluffy version or a strict classic square made of dense cotton yarn. You can talk a lot about this, but the purpose of this article is not to praise such an interior item as a pillow. We want to tell you how you can completely independently add individuality, charm, as well as warmth and comfort to the interior of your house or apartment.

What you need for knitting

Let's start with the fact that you can knit it both with a crochet and with knitting needles. At the same time, for some reason, crocheted pillows are much more common. At the same time, using ordinary knitting needles, you can create no less beautiful and unique products. As they say, there would be a desire.

Here we allow ourselves to start with knitted pillows.

You will need yarn, knitting needles and a crochet hook.

Yarn

In order to knit a pillow, you can choose any yarn. It can be thick cotton, linen, wool mixture or modern threads with various "special effects". Which threads to give preference to depends only on what kind of pillow you want to knit: a simple one or decorate it with beautiful decor.

When choosing a yarn, the purpose of your product is also of great importance. If it plays a purely decorative role, then almost any yarn can be used. If you plan to actively use a self-tied pillow for its intended purpose (in a stroller for a child, under your back in a chair - it doesn’t matter), you should think about the strength and practicality of the threads from which you will tie it. The ideal option in this case would be cotton or linen - they are both durable and natural. If we are talking about a pouffe pillow that will lie on the floor, then it will be possible to tie it with synthetic threads from those that can be washed without problems and do not wear out.

Having rummaged through your “bins” and brought to light the yarn left over from other works, you can achieve two goals at once - a pillow with knitting needles is a beautiful and original accessory that you will receive, at the same time getting rid of many different-sized hanks with the remnants of threads.

spokes

You can choose any knitting needles, by yarn number. The main thing is that you feel comfortable working with them.

Hook

It will also be needed when you make out the seams on your pillow. It is also advisable to choose by yarn number.

The simplest pillow can be knitted by knitting the required number of loops on the knitting needles, and then knitting a simple rectangular fabric, the width of which is equal to the width of the future pillow, and the length is twice the length of the product plus a small margin for seams. You can knit with any pattern you like. Even the usual stocking or garter stitch. If you knit a little more, you can make a valve with loops and additionally stylize your pillow with large buttons. It will turn out quickly, already quite simple and pretty.

Replace a simple pattern with embossed braids or diamonds, calculated to sit beautifully in the center of your pillow, or asymmetrically for a more original pillow.


Decorate the seams on the pillow with a crochet hook, and if you are not familiar with it, then with a regular buttonhole stitch, using a fluffy or just a thread of a contrasting color.

Pillow shapes

In addition to square or rectangular, you can knit a pillow-roller. At the same time, you can also knit it as a straight fabric, which is then sewn in an appropriate way and decorate the ends of the product in an original way. You can knit in the round using circular needles or a set of five double-edged knitting needles.

In the first case, the pattern you have chosen for the product will be located across. If you decide to knit a pillow in the round, the pattern will lie along such a pillow cushion. A plain pillow-roller will look something like this.


You can knit it striped, with inserts of yarn of a different texture, or simply from melange yarn.

In this article, we show you what knitted pillows can be. Perhaps, it is rare that a product that can be made by one's own hands can boast such scope for the imagination of craftswomen.

However, even more opportunities open up if you call for help with a crochet hook. In addition to the design of the seams in cases where the pillow is made with knitting needles, a hook in skillful hands is capable of incredible things.

Thanks to the hook, the knitted pillow can be of almost any shape.


Any yarn can also be used. As an example, we will allow ourselves to tell you how to knit a pouffe pillow with your own hands.

You will need yarn and a matching hook.

Start knitting with a chain of 4 air loops, close it in a circle. Next, knit the rise from two or three air loops instead of the first column. If you want to get a denser pillow, knit it with single crochets. Double crochets will make a less dense option.


Then we knit in the round, knitting two columns in each loop of the previous row. When you get a circle of the desired diameter, continue to knit without adding more loops. This will give you the cushion edge. What height it will be - it's up to you.


Having knitted your ottoman to the desired height, we begin to decrease the columns - we knit them not in each loop, but through one. It can be a small sofa cushion of a round shape, or a rather high pouffe, on which it is convenient to put tired legs during the day. And after completing two or three multi-colored pillows, you will get original accessories for the children's room, which, without any doubt, your kids will like.

Knitted pillows of various shapes

Here are such funny sofa cushions that can be knitted from the remnants of yarn. Information on how to knit such pillows with detailed descriptions of the work process, as well as many other ideas, you can find on our website.
