Give the gift that every crocheter in your life truly desires: time to crochet in peace. The ‘Go Away’ Pillow serves as a clear indication that the crocheter wants nothing more than to focus on counting without interruption and to crochet until their heart’s content!
Mother’s Day is approaching in North America, and at my house, we usually take advantage of the spring weather to either go on a family hike or else clean up the garden for the season. This year I am hoping to garden with my two boys and get some flowers to hang on the front porch. Although I wouldn’t be opposed to a rainy day filled with crocheting and a good audiobook! And if anyone comes to ask me questions or complain, I can simply point to my new ‘Go Away’ pillow and enjoy some peace.
And now you can crochet your own ‘Go Away Pillow’ at home!
