Beginner Friendly Crochet Pin Cushion With Video Tutorial




Supplies:

worsted weight yarn  
4.0 mm hook
blunt end yarn needle for sewing
scissors
polyester stuffing
felt
embroidery thread


Abbreviations:
st = stitch
sc = single crochet
ch= chain 
sl st = slip stitch 
f/o = finish off

How to read the rows:
Add a maker at the end of row 2 and move that marker each time you finish a row. Each row has a sequence. Example: 1sc then 2sc in next st means repeat that sequence 1sc then 2sc in next st followed by 1sc then 2sc in next st over and over to the end of that row. When you land on the marker you should be putting in 2sc. If it is a decreasing row then you should be crocheting 2tog when you land on the marker. The number inside the parentheses ( ~ ) is the number of stitches you should have at the end of that particular row.

Place the wrong sides of the front piece and back piece together, lining up the stitches of both pieces. Starting at the top, centered with the mushroom, sc around the edge through both pieces. Stop and stuff before closing up. Once you have sc into the last of the stitches, chain any length of your choice, I normally do a chain of 15, sl st the chain into the next st forming a loop. sl st and f/o. Weave in yarn tail.
