Say ‘hello’ to the Tourmaline Pillow! The Tourmaline Pillow is a wonderfully textured pillow made with simple crochet stitches. Use your four favourite colours of Comfy Colour Mist from WeCrochet to create this beautiful accessory!
The Yarn
When I received my Comfy Color Mist in the mail, I fell instantly in love with it! It has a stonewashed effect that makes this 75% Prima Cotton, 25% Acrylic yarn so stunning! My plans were originally to make a poncho, But once I had the hanks in my hands, I envisioned a textured pillow pattern that I couldn’t wait to create!
You can find Comfy Color Mist here in hanks for $8.99 >> WeCrochet Comfy Color Mist Yarn.
The WeCrochet Website describes Comfy Color Mist :
“With bold sprays of striking color, soft pastel sprinkles, and foggy neutrals, Comfy Color Mist brings new life to soft and breathable Pima Cotton, adding a soft and subtle texture to even the simplest of stitches. Made with the popular Comfy Worsted base, acrylic microfiber gives elasticity to this lightweight, long wearing, machine washable yarn. Good for warm weather projects of all kinds, you’ll find it especially great for children’s clothing and baby blankets that need an extra misting of color.“

I hope you enjoy making the Tourmaline Pillow, thanks for stopping by, and happy Crocheting!
Just wanted to clarify, is the back panel supposed to be all granny square? If so, I believe the pattern should be
Round 2: Sl st to next ch-1 space, ch 2, *(3 dc, ch 2, 3 dc) in ch-1 space; repeat from * around
In the magic ring there are 4 ch-1 spaces, which means that each one should be a granny square corner (3dc, ch2, 3dc).
I’m confused. In your first round, you have 6 popcorns in the magic ring, but in the pictures it looks like you have 8 popcorns in the magic ring.
Hey there! Thank you for catching this mistake, my apologies for that! It’s been updated now, so if you refresh your page you will see the correct instructions.
