Crochet pillows are perfect to easily create a particular style in your house. They are small and really quick to crochet, so you can experiment with the pattern.
Depending on a structure and design the result can be quite surprising and refreshing. Nowadays one of the most popular styles is a simple Nordic one. It allows you to have modest furniture and to have a cozy atmosphere in the same time. It’s possible by adding little details such as pillows. Take a look at examples below and search for links to free patterns under the pictures.
