Finished size may vary depending on your yarn and hook size.

Supplies:

• Lori Holt Chunky Thread (2 Weight)
• 2 Skeins Cloud (100g main color)
• 12 Skeins Lori Holt Chunky Thread in a variety of colors (72g Total or 6g ea. HST) (I used: Cloud, Peony, Cayenne, Honey, Riley Aqua, Riley Green, Lipstick, Frosting, Pumpkin, Riley Grey, and Breezy)
• US E – 3.5mm Crochet Hook
• Yarn Needle
• Embroidery Scissors
• 1-yard fabric for Backing

NOTE: Using another yarn weight is fine, however it will change your finished crochet blocks, and thus alter the size of your finished pillow.

Since these squares are essential half-square-triangles, there are several layout options!
