Mountain Peak Pillow Crochet Pattern

May 01, 2018

The Mountain Peak Pillow is a fun and beautiful pattern to make for your living room, bedroom or nursery. The pattern is written for a 14x14 throw pillow but instructions are included to make a customized pillow! I love mountains, the look of them look really peaceful. Even if you don't live near the mountains, you can have a little mountain peak in your living room! This would also be a beautiful theme for a new bundle of joys nursery room! This pattern may be a little advanced as it uses decreases and long stitches.
