  • Tunisian Travel Pillow by Hayden Smith
    Tunisian Travel Pillow By Hayden Smith About The Pattern This is a pattern for a small pillow (stuffed rectangle). It is created using the basic Tunisian Crochet Stitch then seamed together I chose to use Tunisian crochet for a couple reasons 1) It’s a very nice looking, smooth stitch that is easy to work 2) It creates almost perfectly square stitches that allow for cross-stitching into afterwards for endless design possibilities 3) It leaves very nice edges which are very easy to seam together I created this with the mindset of wanting a small travel size pillow that I could keep in a backpack and have on hand if I were ever in a situation where I wanted to rest my head for a bit, like at an airport for example. Small enough to carry around without taking up much space with just enough cushion in case you want to get comfortable somewhere I have some suggested sizes here, these are all a 4x3 aspect ratio to mimic a regular pillow shape but it’s very easy to customize the shape of your pillow to be wider, longer, taller, more square by altering the number of foundation chains and rows worked (Math for computing this is listed below in the ​Math​ section) Small 15 chain x 40 Rows (~ 5” x 7”) Medium 21 chain x 56 Rows (~ 6.8” x 10”) Large 27 chain x 72 Rows (~ 8.8” x 12.5”) What You Will Need Worsted Weight Yarn You can substitute other yarn weights but you will have to alter your hook size and stitch counts.
