I've recently discovered wiggle crochet. It is this fantastic method where you crochet a grid and then crochet multiple stitches in each grid bar. The effect is that you get this great wavy pattern. The patterns are endless.
I got it in my head that I was going to design a heart pillow. I created a 17x17 grid and used a spreadsheet document to plan out my pillow. I'm so pleased with the results! I finished it the other day and it was destined to be my coworker's wedding gift.

I just love the colors. I used a lovely red in Red Heart Soft yarn and charcoal grey in Vanna's Choice. |

Aren't the wiggles/waves gorgeous? |

The back is wonderful too. I used a granny square pattern I discovered on Ravelry that alternates FPDC and DC to create this great cabled look. |
I'm so proud of my pillow!
Holy cow! You should be SUPER proud! That is AMAZING! Are you sharing the pattern anywhere or do you have a link I could follow to learn how to do wiggle crochet? That is seriously the coolest thing I have seen in a long time!
ReplyDeleteOh, thank you! I free handed most of it. I tried to keep track initially, but I found myself watching too much television. :) I may try to make another one and come up with the pattern.
ReplyDeleteHaha, I do that so often!! If you find yourself in the mood I would love a pattern but don't stress about it. I'll probably just start playing around with "wiggle crochet" and see what I come up with. It's very very cute! You did a great job!
ReplyDeleteYou have every reason to be proud of this lovely! :) Great job! :) I like pattern you choose for the back as well! Very well done! :) Beautiful photos to boot! ;)
ReplyDeleteHow big was your grid (no. of squares) for the cushion? Did you use double crochet or treble for the grid?
ReplyDeleteHi, Neetika, I used a 17x17 grid. It was created with double crochets.
DeleteCan you share your pattern and how you made this. It’s so pretty
