Scraps of Yarn July Crochet Along - finished!

Last night I finally managed to finish the July scraps of yarn crochet along challenge posted by Joanita over at Creative Crochet Toys. And just in time to show it off before the end of the month!

Although I'm sure it would great as a regular pillow, reading Joanita's post I realized that her original idea was to make a pajama pillow.

Since my daughter is always very keen of putting away her pajamas every morning, I decided to give her this pillow cover for her to store her pajamas during the day.

It's a bit too big (since I assume it was originally thought as an adult pajama pillow) but it looks cute on her bed and if she's happy, then I'm happy.

Have a great weekend!

  6. Such a darling idea for pajama storage! I really need to try to crochet again. Tried when I was a young bride and did it way too tight. Maybe I've loosened up a bit. lol! Thanks for sharing with SYC.
