Step-by-Step Instructions
Base of Toadstool (Brown)
- Cast on 60 stitches using brown yarn.
- Work in stockinette stitch:
- Knit one row.
- Purl the next row.
- Repeat this for a total of 20 rows.
- Once completed, bind off all stitches. This will form the sturdy base of your toadstool pillow.
Cap of Toadstool (Red)
- Cast on 60 stitches using red yarn.
- Work in stockinette stitch for 10 rows (knit one row, purl the next).
- Begin decreasing to shape the cap:
- Row 11: (Knit 8, k2tog) repeat to end of the row.
- Row 12: Purl all stitches.
- Row 13: (Knit 7, k2tog) repeat to end of the row.
- Continue decreasing in this manner, reducing the number of knit stitches between k2tog by one on each knit row until you have 10 stitches remaining.
- Once you reach 10 stitches, bind off all stitches. This will create the rounded cap of your toadstool.
Spots (White)
- Using white yarn, cast on 10 stitches.
- Work in stockinette stitch for 4 rows.
- Bind off all stitches.
- Make 5-7 spots depending on your preference for decoration.
Assembly
- Using a tapestry needle, sew the white spots onto the red cap. Position them evenly for a whimsical look.
- Next, sew the red cap to the brown base, leaving a small opening to insert stuffing.
- Stuff the pillow with your chosen stuffing material until it reaches your desired plushness.
- Finally, sew the opening closed securely to complete your toadstool pillow.
