What Is The Spring Home Decor Blog Hop and Crochet Pattern Bundle?

This post was originally my contribution to the Spring Home Decor Blog Hop hosted by E Claire Makery. During this blog hop, you could purchase all patterns in one bundle for less than $1 per pattern or visit the individual blog posts. I loved contributing to a project with so many different designers and designs. And I think my Bonny Billow Crochet Cable Pillow fits in nicely with the other designs. It also stands alone perfectly.

I’m enjoying working with crochet cables right now. This should be no surprise if you noticed I’m part of the upcoming Classic Cable Collection CAL. The Bonny Billow Crochet Cable Pillow I’m sharing perfectly complements the crochet blanket pattern I’m offering as part of that CAL. Whenever I start playing with a new technique, I want to make ALL THE THINGS. And that’s what’s happened with these cables.

Hidden Crochet Cable Technique

Of course, there are different ways to work crochet cables. Often, you use both front and back post stitches. However, this leaves gaps or holes in the work. There’s nothing wrong with that, per se. However, you need a new technique if you want a denser fabric without those holes.

In the Bonny Billow Crochet Cable Pillow pattern (as well as the blanket I’m sharing as part of the aforementioned CAL; sneak peek here), I’ve solved this problem. You’ll work only front post stitches for the cables and use regular crochet stitches for the wrong side rows. As a result, you get great cable detail with no spaces. It is called the hidden crochet cable technique.

Crochet Cable Pillow Materials

This crochet pattern uses Billow Yarn, a bulky-weight cotton yarn perfect for spring home decor crochet patterns.

You’ll also use a 6.5mm/K crochet hook (or hook needed to obtain gauge) … (recommended: WeCrochet Hook or ergonomic TooShay Crochet Hook)
