Pillow Pals, crochet pattern for large animal pillows

Crochet pattern to make large stuffed animal pillows. The Pillow Pals are huggable and cute.

Included are instructions for a piggy, puppy, bear, owl, ducky, froggy, kitten and bunny.

The Pillow Pals are easy to make but a basic knowledge of crochet is required.

The ones shown in the photos are 14 inches/ 35 cm high.

You can make your Pillow Pals bigger or smaller, without changing the pattern. The size of the Pillow Pals depends on the size of your crochet hook, thickness of yarn and how you stuff them. A bigger hook and thicker yarn make a bigger animal. A pillow stuffed tightly is bigger than a loosely stuffed pillow.

I used No 5 yarn (Chunky, Craft, Rug) and a 6mm hook (US 10/J, UK 4).
