Striped Christmas Tree Pillow

This fun pillow will add a touch of whimsy to your holiday decorating. The easy pattern works up quick and can easily be modified for a variety of looks.

VARIATIONS

• Replace the pom-pom with a star, pattern included.
• Adjust the size of the pillow by using thicker or thinner yarn. Use a hook that will yield a tight stitch so the stuffing does not show through.
• Make your tree one color and decorate with buttons.
• Work your pillow double stranded. Keep one strand the same color and vary the color of the second strand for an instantly decorated tree. Great way to use up some scrap yarn! Please note: this will require additional yarn.
• Mix and match! Make one side striped, one side solid.

Finished size, approximately 10” by 16”.
