  • Sprinkle your home with some love with this Heart Cushion! I crocheted this with a worsted yarn in white and black to give it a minimalist touch since that's the theme I am aiming for. But, Hey! You may add pompoms around the edge if you're feeling a little festive or may change your yarn colors to pastel for spring, bright colors for summer and orange-y colors for Autumn, or whatever color you wish to use! This graphgan pillow will never fail you and your space, the only limit is your imagination! Head over to the link on my bio to directly get to the free pattern I posted on my blog at creamofthecropcrochet.com #crochetpillow
