Shuri Tunisian Crochet Pillow

SHARE

Shuri Tunisian Crochet Pillow made in tunisian simple stitch with two colors of worsted weight yarn for a fun geometric design.

What do you get when you pair two colors of yarn, a Tunisian crochet hook and a pillow form? A vibrant Tunisian crochet pillow for your sofa, favorite chair, bedroom or office! It’s time to add a pop of color and style to your decor.

But hold on a second, what exactly is Tunisian crochet? If you’re scratching your head and picturing a crochet hook with a beret, fear not! Tunisian crochet is a unique technique that combines the best of both crochet and knitting. It creates a beautifully textured fabric that’s perfect for pillows, blankets, and even garments. 

Now, let’s talk about the star of the show – Shuri Tunisian Crochet Pillow. With its eye-catching geometric pattern shown in bright pink and purple yarns, this tunisian crochet pillow is sure to make a statement in any room. Whether you want to add a splash of color to your living room or create a cozy accent for your bedroom, this pillow has got you covered (literally!). 

But why should you make your own pillow instead of buying one from a store? Well, besides the satisfaction of creating something unique with your own two hands, making your own pillow allows you to unleash your creativity and customize it to match your personal style. Plus, it’s a fantastic way to learn Tunisian crochet stitches and even dip your toes into the world of graphghan crochet – a technique that uses charts to create intricate color work designs. So not only will you end up with a gorgeous pillow, but you’ll also gain valuable skills along the way. 

So grab two colors of yarn, a tunisian crochet hook with a cable, yarn needle, some stitch markers or clamps, and get ready for an exciting Tunisian crochet adventure. Get ready to make a statement with your very own handmade masterpiece!

Why color work for a Tunisian crochet pillow?

Why not???

Any handmade pillow is a great opportunity to display one’s creativity by making something that matches a style, or go bold with color and technique. A tunisian crochet pillow is perfect for all of the above and more.

By making a 16″ x 16″ pillow, it’s a common size for throw pillows to add to a sofa or comfy chair. It’s also a size that provides a reasonably sized canvas to practice and begin mastering a technique. The Shuri Tunisian Crochet Pillow features stranded color work.

What is stranded color work? It is a form of color work in which you work with one color at a time along a row or round, and “float” or carry the unused color(s) along the back to where that color is needed. You will not work over the unused color. This method creates a neat right side of the fabric with the design or image, and a wrong side of the fabric full of floats. Warning, the floats can easily be caught on other objects, if this color work technique is used for a project that will be worn or carried.

Hopefully, you know or are getting to know Creations by Courtney for clever modifications. The detail of color work in this tunisian crochet pillow “needed” the floats to be “secured.” Rather than creating several small balls of yarn to pick up as needed, you will carry both colors along each forward and return pass. I think this creates a neater design at the color change points, and it surprisingly tangles less with fewer attached yarns to manage.

The modification is straightforward. Rather than dropping the color to pick up when needed, you will carry it along and “catching it” with the color being used. Refer to this tutorial for a demonstration.

Yarn

We cannot talk about crochet without talking about the yarn. With lots of wonderful options, there’s no limit to color combinations that can be created for this tunisian crochet pillow.

The yarn for the Shuri Tunisian Crochet Pillow was provided by Crochet Foundry. I had 52 colors of Furls Wander to choose from, which was bit challenging. This is probably one of the reasons why Furls offers pallets of color to make it easier to choose multiple colors that coordinate. Rather than playing it safe by choosing popular or neutral shades, I choose two bright colors. I can admit that it was tough and go making the practice swatch, as Orchid and Festival are quite bright, but I love how it came together!

If you have not tried Furls Wander, I hope you’ll get a few skeins to try for this crochet project. Each skein is a worsted weight with a put-up of 120 yards / 109 meters per 100 grams. It’s a reasonably priced 100% acrylic yarn at $5 per skein. You can save when purchasing for larger projects by getting a 10-pack for just $39.50.

I like the sheen of this yarn, and it’s softness that works great for home decor to wraps to a Coll weather cardigan.
