DESCRIPTION
The Canada Pillow is a beautiful pillow made using intarsia crochet techniques. Using 2 different colors, a maple leaf is crocheted in red, boxed in white, with 2 panels of red on either side.
I used intarsia rather than tapestry crochet for this pillow because the maple leaf is rather large, and I did not want to waste yarn by carrying it through the design.
I had a red bobbin on the right and left side, white bobbins for 2 sections of white on either side of the maple leaf, and a red bobbin for the maple leaf design. There’s minimal color changes, so it worked up pretty fast and quick.
My kind of of a crochet design!
