Fantastic tutorial. No wasted time and super clear. Thank you!

I tried this patern with two colours, (with this tutorial ofc) and I have to say, I'm more then just satisfied with the result 😁😄 like, it was really hard for me, to do it with two colours, but I love it 🥰🥰 thanks for this tutorial ❤❤

[@CrochetWithJulie]

You read my mind! I was just making a version of this using three strands at once (I am releasing the tutorial on Saturday), and I was thinking how fun it would be to make this with two different colors! Happy crocheting!

[@barfsauce]

Thank you for the pattern, I made a lovely gift!

[@rachaelchirindo1645]

Hi I tried it and they are very smart

[@justdi3347]

Beautiful beautiful pillow! I have never seen this stitch and I love that NO ZIPPER is needed. I think your tutorial was very well done and easy to follow. I will definitely practice this stitch as I am sure there is a learning curve for it. I am new to your channel and will definitely be subscribing because I like that you take your time in showing how to work the stitch. Thank you!

[@SunnySunny-dw6kz]

Can’t wait to try this!!

[@CrochetWithJulie]

Thank you! I really enjoy mine :)

[@craftygal365]

So pretty! I’d like to try this pattern on a larger pillow (18 x 18). Is there a formula for increasing the size?

[@CrochetWithJulie]

Yes! I would try an initial CH row with 67 chains. The next row should have 132 st in the round. I hope this helps! ☺️

[@craftygal365]

i really love this pattern

[@CrochetWithJulie]

Thank you so much! 😀

[@shortyt6746]

I love this patter and trying my best follow..when you say "row" do you mean the whole round or are you using them separately? I've certain parts over and over and it seems like both.. Also as a learning viewer, it helps me to see the whole piece layed out in between step/round/row etc. That way, I can compare mine to yours. Again, thank you so for the videos!

[@CrochetWithJulie]

After the initial CH row, each row is the whole circle in the round - until you reach the flap portion. I also have a stitch tutorial for this diamond stitch that you might find helpful: Crochet: Diamond Crochet Stitch Tutorial - In the Round kzbin.info/www/bejne/mnzRl3qCnNiaq6M I hope this helps!

[@dalitablair]

​@@CrochetWithJulieI'm a beginner as well - I didn't expect that each row would mean the whole round either. This comment was very helpful, thank you.

[@nadiamiah9360]

Hi, love this pattern! I have a cushion that needs a cover but it's 25*25", what should my foundation chain size be? Is there a base number to work out how many chains you need regardless of cushion size? E.g multiples of 5+3 Thank you for the lovely pattern!

[@CrochetWithJulie]

Yes! I just use algebra, so the formula here is: (53*X)/14 Where x = number of inches wide So for a 25x25” cushion, you should need a base chain of 95 (188 in the round). I hope this helps and happy crocheting!

[@nadiamiah9360]

Thank you so much!

[@bostonmetalclips]

Love it! Going to try this tonight.

[@CrochetWithJulie]

Thank you so much! I have been using this cover for a long time now (with dogs) and it is still holding up! Let me know if you run into any issues and I’m happy to help!

Hy i am lost after 9:52 double crochet and then slip stitch and then ?? Repeat but please help me how exactly to repeat we placed single crochet and then double crochet in our first row before we started The design please help me.

[@ashlesha21]

Thank you for sharing… please suggest how many stitches for 16 * 16 pillow

[@CrochetWithJulie]

Hi! I would suggest placing an initial chain of 61 stitches, based on some rough math :) Happy crocheting!

[@ashlesha21]

@@CrochetWithJulie thank you 😊

[@openartsmusic7928]

Hi. I’m not sure what to do in the middle of the rows (ie at the corner after the 52nd stitch). Do I do a slip stitch or just continue the pattern round the corner? Many thanks.

[@CrochetWithJulie]

Hello! Just continue the pattern around the corner. Make sure you don’t work in the slip knot, so the next stitch should be in the other loop of your correct stitch (does this make sense? If not, I can try to explain it differently).

[@jeannaa3361]

Did you go all the way around with the dbl crochet that you started at 2:28 ? I’m lost. How many dbl crochet stitches did you do total?

[@CrochetWithJulie]

Yes, starting with this row, all of the remaining rows will be in the round (until the very end). You should have 104 total stitches each row.

[@jeannaa3361]

Thank you!

[@Gitanjali-Sara]

Grazie! 🌹🍀

[@judiandgeorgewatson425]

I assume that enlarging the size of the cushion cover requires more yarn…could you suggest how much yarn would be required for a 16 “ square and an 18” square?

[@CrochetWithJulie]

Yes it will. My very rough estimate is around 636 yards for the 16-inch and 715 yards for the 18-inch. I hope this helps!

[@stephaniecrossing3505]

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong on the row where you start to add the pattern I'm leaving 3 gap and framing 3 but there not going evem

[@CrochetWithJulie]

Is it severely uneven? If not, it might take adding the additional rows where you work under the posts to make it look slightly better. The first row Can look a little bit strange.

I need to make this for a pillow that’s 18x18 (so a bit bigger than this one). How do I do that? 😭

[@alishbajehangir3546]

Found a comment that helped!!

[@karenmetcalfe3317]

What is this stitch called?

[@CrochetWithJulie]

I think it is called a diamond stitch. At least that is what I called it. I have a stitch tutorial for this in the round if you are interested: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mnzRl3qCnNiaq6M

[@crestadurojaiye3037]

I am not sure what I am doing wrong. I have tried twice and it keeps going wrong after the second round. I wish I could show a photo 😭😭😭

[@CrochetWithJulie]

I am so sorry you’re having an issue with it! I did a stitch tutorial for the stitch that makes up this case. It might help you: Crochet: Diamond Crochet Stitch Tutorial - In the Round kzbin.info/www/bejne/mnzRl3qCnNiaq6M

[@aidanadia.29]

I assume that you are using the diamond waffle stitch for this pattern. Can I ask why you only yarn over once for the second front post treble crochet stitch? Because the first FPTC (in one V cluster) yarns over twice, but the second FPTC only yarns over once, the cable that is formed on the left arm of the V stitch in each row does not appear identical - because they aren’t. The second FPTC is not nearly as defined and it looks like it’s missing a stitch (sort of because it is). I was instinctively doing two FPTCs until I realised you weren’t. As it is my first time working this stitch, I assumed the error was mine. Now having discovered what this stitch is called, and after reading written patterns and watching other tutorials, this stitch appears to call for yarning over twice. The appearance is markedly different and uniform in my opinion. Was this a stylistic decision? I otherwise found your method of crocheting a pillow/cushion cover by crocheting in the oval and working up both sides fantastic and more preferable to simply crocheting two squares and stitching them together at the side.

[@CrochetWithJulie]

This stitch is extremely even. It might not look it in the first row, but the consecutive rows will look strange if you yarn over twice (since you don’t complete the TR, you are working 2 loops on each side of the V). That being said, if you want to work it your way, why not? I can tell you I’ve worked this method with several projects and tutorials (currently working a purse with it), and yarning over once on the second post is not a mistake.

[@DipaManger-tj9fc]

Nice ❤Ly

[@CrochetWithJulie]

Thank you! I have been **meaning** to make a second tutorial for this with all throw pillow sizes and a zipper, but like almost everything, I keep procrastinating lol.

[@mariselaneusteter2227]

How long does it take to crochet a pillow like this??🙂

I would say it is about three beanies for me (so 4-6 hours), if I had to guess.

[@marketa19]

I am lost at 6.10 - there is mistake: 1st slip stitch then video cut and 2nd slipstitch? It doesnt match...I dont understand.😳

[@CrochetWithJulie]

The 1st slip st is just pulling through all of the loops on your crochet hook to finish out the last of the diamond stitches. The second is placing 1 SL st at the top of the TR you just worked around. I hope this helps, the only thing I skipped was me pulling yarn out of the skein.

[@marketastepanova4376]

@@CrochetWithJulie Ok thank you, I will try it

[@Ann-Vorol]

i am at the begining of this and noted that you dont say how you crochet as you go round the other side!!

[@CrochetWithJulie]

Each row will be the same on both sides of the pillow for a circle rather than two squares.

Eu não entendo o que explica !

[@carolynwilliams1849]

I love the pillow so I started making it. When it got to forming the pattern I lost what you were doing. It was hard to keep up with the stitches. I'm very disappointed because I really truly wanted this pillow. ☹️☹️

I am sorry you were disappointed. What part/row/stitch gave you trouble and I will try to help!
