I love making throw pillows, love it! I make all of my pillows envelope style so I can easily change them out, store them and wash them.
I crochet a top layer and two back panels, and then crochet the layers together from the front side.
✨️ To seam up a crocheted pillow with single crochet:
🤎 Lay the top back panel down wrong side facing up, then lay the front panel down with the wrong side facing down so both wrong sides are together.
🤎 Insert your hook into the next stitch on your top layer as normal, then insert your hook into the corresponding stitch on the back panel, and finally complete your single crochet as usual (ie, yarn over, pull through, yarn over and pull through both loops).
🤎 Continue working all the way across the row to the corner. In the corner chain space, work in the same manner through both layers. I usually stick to (single crochet, chain 2, single crochet).
🤎 A little ways down the side, you'll want to pause to line up the back bottom panel with the bottom of the front panel and see where it overlaps in the center. I like to use stitch markers to pin everything together so I don't have to keep stopping to check.
🤎 Once you get to the overlapped section, you'll follow the same process except adding in a new layer, so there are 3 on your hook before completing your single crochet stitch.
🤎 Repeat for the other two sides.
