Donut Worry Be Happy!! Welcome to my free crocheted pattern for Crocheted Donut Pillow. Have you seen my Crocheted X-Large Donut Pillow pattern? I wanted to create a smaller version that is just as fabulous and cozy. I used Bernat Blanket Yarn to create this soft and fun pillow. It’s works up really fast, the sprinkles are tons of fun and it’s sure to be a conversation piece any where in your house.
For the Crocheted Donut Pillow you create a top and bottom, add a swirl or sprinkles and single crochet together. You can choose from a variety of colors for top and bottom I used Bernat Blanket Yarn in Taupe but you can also use Sand or Baby Sand to get similar look. I chose Bernat Baby Blanket Yarn in Lilac for the frosting but you can choose which ever color you desire. There are plenty of color option combinations to chose, when I make another I’ll try making a white with red sprinkles and use a sand for the bottom. Have fun choosing your colors and making your Crocheted Donut Pillow!
