chevron pillow - crochet pattern - make your own

The multicolored chevron pillows I've made with yarn leftovers. If it's too colorful to your opinion, you can make the chevron pillow in your own favorite colors or only two contrasting colors.

psychedelic pillow

Another unfinished project done.

The first stitches of this pillow I made last month and in the meantime I have made a mini collection of fingerless mittens.
This multicolored chevron pillow including innerpillow is now available in my ETSY SHOP.

The cushion has two different sides; the front side with multicolored (dark brown, rusty brown, orange brown, royal blue, lilac, dusty pink and ocher yellow, bright yellow, red, burgundy red, sand, turquoise and off white) chevron stripes and the back side in off white.

Would you rather make one yourself?

new on the art wall

Two new art posters on the wall.

Portrait of a lady - Klimt
Like an elephant in a porcelain shop - Grønholdt

Two poster from Danmark arrived yesterday. Small change, great joy.
We have poured a friday afternoon drink to toast to the weekend.

In the meantime I'm working on a new chevron pillow! Fun crochet project to work on.

chevron cushion - another unfinished project done

Another unfinished project done.

The first stitches of this pillow I made last May.
This chevron pillow ended up on the pile of almost unfinished projects.

And all I actually had to do, was to buy an inner cushion and sew the seam. Having 'extra' time, somehow brings so much satisfaction.

The cushion has two different sides; one white & multicolored stripes and the other one white, lilac & yellow with smaller stripes.

Fancy to make one yourself?

PS: All patterns in my shop are still 1 euro each and I keep donating the pattern sales proceeds to a Corona fund. Since I started the 1 euro - pattern sale on March 15th, I already sold over 350 patterns, huge thanks to everyone who contributed to this 'creative' help!

the chevron pillow on repeat

New chevron pillow in the making.
Since both chevron pillows I made in January have moved to Boston, USA.

Actually only one chevron pillow was listed in my etsy shop, however Gillian, a friendly customer, asked me if she could buy them both. Well I thought it's better when the pair would stick together anyway.

I miss the pillows in my studio, so I started a new pillow project the same evening. Chevron pillow on repeat, in white & colors, my best loved combination.

Fancy to make one too?

workspace wednesday

In case you didn't notice yet, i love having a home workspace. It just feels luxurious.

So nice to have a spot where I can hang inspirational photos, art and prints.

Browse my endless piles of design and interior magazines and besides when i’m in my atelier I’m getting things done!

The advantage is that now everything has a place and I can finally find my stuff.
Since I have 'moved in' in what used to be Pippa's room, the rest of the house is considerably tidier, even though things keep popping up in the rest of the house anyway.

I stopped a while ago making recycled wooden stools with crochet covers, which I started making in 2007. This explains the name WOODWOOLSTOOL. Well, the wool-part will stick for a while and the weird name remains unchanged.

After many years (and countless stools) I was ready for something new. Organizing and preparing the workshops in Marrakech also meant that I did not have time for it anymore.

Obviously I keep making things, I could not do otherwise. I get a lot of energy and simply love to create something new.

I recently made covers with Moroccan wool for some vintage steel stools. I instantly fell in love with the 'Carribean blue' frame and design, however the brown plastic seat, could use a makeover.

One of the stools is available in my Etsy shop, as well as the reversible herringbone-chevron pillow.

Now I'm back to work and wish you all a pleasant Wednesday!

winter bedding

Winter ain't over yet.

New items for sale.
Have a look in my ETSY SHOP.

atelier

Atelier. I love the sound of the elegant french word for ‘workspace’.

In the past months I've moved my workspace items, the entire wool collection, a desk, a sofa and a lot of vintage furniture to the spare room in our house. It's completely decorated with items we already stored in barn and attic. In the meantime it is slowly taking shape and it's an inspiring place and wonderful room to work. Moreover it's a great space to relax on the sofa.

It's great to have a special spot to call your 'own'.

green & pink

With green & pink you can't go wrong. Those two colors compliment each other really nicely.

Actually this is the prototype of my latest chevron pillow design. I started to make this one before the two multicolored chevron pillows.
While I was working on this green & pink project, I imagined the chevron pattern would look cool with lots of colors too. And eventually I finished the multicolored ones first.

Last week I finally finished the green & pastel pink pillow... (well as a matter of fact I simply had to stitch the seams)

Using only two colors, this green & pink pillow is quite a bit easier to make, also for beginners.

time to re-decorate

January is the perfect month to re-decorate. Spending more time indoor, you can easily change your interior with just a few items to infuse some color and texture into your room.

You can re-arrange your existing furniture, giving your room a whole new look.
Add some new accent pillows or posters, this is the perfect time to try out new color combinations. Bright bold colors can add a warm feel to your space for the remainder of the winter months.

The new multicolored chevron pillows I've made recently, give our room a completely different look. The bright & bold colorful combinations are an example, you can make the chevron pillow in your own favorite colors or two contrasting colors.
