Enchanted Gingerbread Dreams Pillow

By

From the December 2023 issue

This charming pillow is brought to life through a combination of intricate crochet techniques, resulting in a stunningly realistic appearance. The attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this design. A beautifully crafted row of shell stitches adorns the bottom edge of the roof, providing an enchanting finishing touch. Surface slip stitch stripes add depth and character, accentuating the roof and creating the illusion of charming windows. The eave is cleverly fashioned to resemble a peppermint stick, while the door is adorned with a wreath, capturing the quintessential holiday spirit. Additionally, gumdrop appliqués are crocheted separately and lovingly attached to the finished piece, adding a sweet finishing touch.
