I used one of those extra long pillows, for your bed, and tied it together with string. Then, I wrapped the poly fill around that, and added abit on top. It worked out well. Very firm.

[@maryjanepartlow7267]

Thank you for explaining so well!!!! Can’t wait to finish this!

[@clydesdalegirlusa]

Thank You this was the easiest pattern to follow to use up my bernat yarn from all the afghan's I've made. Will use this pattern again.

[@lesleyyacoumis2662]

Hi, I have just found this video. You have explained it perfectly and I’m going to have a go !! Never crocheted before but I think I can do it.

[@njai2323]

Thank you for showing us such an easy and beautiful floor poof❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ How many skeins of blanket yarn do we need for this pattern? Thank you again🎉

[@scraphreek]

Thanks for a very well explained video. Your voice is so pleasant too.

[@Nottherealme419]

I just finished my second one. Great pattern and instructions!

[@janethayton1787]

Thank you so much!! Very clear instructions, just finished mine. Thrilled with it

[@rosemariestofko4626]

I've made this floor pouf twice now and after the initial stuffing, row 40 instructions indicate 44 sc after completing the 1 sc, 1 scdec all the way around. This results in 2 left over stitches. Your video should be updated to note that the last 2 stitches should be sc in order to result in 44 stitches for that round. I did not get the correct number of stitches and thereafter all my row counts were off.

[@ThursdayDog]

I agree! Completed and I had to follow your instruction

[@janinliu8139]

Just made my own following this video!! Great instructions.

[@sarahobus305]

Just want to say thank you very very much for the step by step you the best 💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋

[@kassycoleman7221]

I just finished mine. This is a wonderful and easy pattern!

[@sharongillespie3615]

Thanks I am new to trying to follow a pattern. I made two Barbie doll size pouf. Now I will try to make a human size.

[@somishin2974]

Thank you! I just finished😊!!!!

[@abiola.ruby.o]

Hi, pls how many grams of yarn did you use for the whole cover?

[@yellowstickybear]

Thank you! Made one for my daughter's dorm!

[@emilydewald141]

I tried to start with 10 stitches several times but it kept acting like I was doing too much, so I started with 8 in the magic circle. And started syncing up with the patter when the stitch count around was supposed to be in the 50s

[@ddale650]

Thank you for commenting, I was struggling with the same thing. Changing to 8 stitches made it work!

[@lesleyyacoumis2662]

3:49 hi, I’m from the UK. Can you tell me what is a skein and how many 100 gm balls will I need to make the pouffe. Thank you

[@myrnaezelle9187]

Sounds like fun. A pattern would tell how much yarn and how much stuffing needed. Theses I have thought of making before. They would be neat and easy

[@DIYFromHomeCrochet]

So for the stuffing, you'll see in the video that I actually used a couple of pillows and stuffed around it to save some money as you would need a TON of stuffing to get a good firm ottoman

[@maureenthomason5199]

How much yarn?

[@ptkuyen]

Thank you. I wonder if the pouf is sturdy enough to sit on it.

[@sherrytrombley4628]

Can you please tell me how much yarn I need

[@melaniedsouza2557]

Thank you for this pattern. I am new to crochet but I was wondering if the slip stitch counts as part of the stitch count for each round?

[@maryjanepartlow7267]

No, your slip stitch does not count as a stitch.

[@MoSqUiToGoBLIn]

is this a good video for beginners? i have a grandma who can do it but i want to try and learn how to do it on my own but if its too hard, I will ask my grandma to do it for me cus it will be a lot easier for her.

[@theswan_75]

How much I need from yarn to make it plz

[@Ginebraxt1]

Is there an alternative to yarn? Yarn is so expensive in my country that you can buy this pouf at a price lower than the materials

[@janetdandera5101]

Wondering if there is a way to get a printed copy of the pattern for this floor poof? Thank you

[@alphaserenity283]

how would I increase this pattern to make circumference larger? would it start with the chain? Sorry new to crochet...

[@Ginebraxt1]

I wonder what I did wrong. I'm using 6 skeins of 100 gr (600 gr in total) and I run out of yarn way before finishing

[@aimeeditomo3597]

Is it normal for the circle to be rippling/ruffling? Im at rown 4 and the piece is so wonky. Help!

[@ariadni3]

the size of the pouf I would like you to tell me please;thank you it’s very beautiful❤️

[@maryshirley4048]

What size hook did you use? I have been wanting to make one of these.

[@nancyrobinson9007]

Do you have to get 2 big ball skeins or can it be normal sized?

[@lifewsweetheart.]

Is it ok if i use different yarn?

[@brendawilliamson4596]

Can you do a shell blanket ada that yawn

[@karenlambe8799]

How many skeins do I need for this?

[@DIYFromHomeCrochet]

2

[@brianamccoy8092]

How should I increase to make it a little bigger??

[@charlenewilliams4066]

How many skeins does the pattern take? Also, I would suggest including a pattern and the US letter of the hook, if these are available. I started crocheting using a pattern and I feel more confident having it on paper. Thanks for getting this info to me.

[@DIYFromHomeCrochet]

9mm hook Any chunky yarn (I used 2 skeins of Bernat Blanket)

[@Star2Nite]

Is there any suggestions for making the pouf larger. This is beautiful, and I would love to make a small one and an extra large one :) any help would be appreciated!

[@wesupportpickles1793]

I was wondering the same thing

[@alejandroalvarezgonzalez1586]

@@wesupportpickles1793 it matters on the thickness of the yarn

[@goofygfy7403]

What is the diameter for this pouf?

[@lauracable6322]

I would like to know as well!

[@sinefroberg8126]

How mutch yarn did You use?? Cant find Your resipe on your web side

[@DIYFromHomeCrochet]

2 skeins (sorry for not mentioning)

[@abigailashlock215]

What do you think the effect would be if I used an 8 mm hook instead of a 9?

[@janinealcon]

I’m guessing 8 mm hook is a little bit tight instead of a 9. When I’m using 10 mm you can see the hole while you crocheting the floor pouf. I prefer 8 mm 😊

[@maryjanepartlow7267]

Makes your stitches tighter so it would be a tad smaller as your stitches are tighter. Still have a poof though.

[@sherrytrombley4628]

To make the floor poof

[@jeanenejackson3578]

What size crochet hook did you use?

[@MoSqUiToGoBLIn]

In the beginning of the video she said she used a 9.0mm crochet hook hope this helps! :)

[@lifewsweetheart.]

This was not well explained at all.
