If your stash got too big, this project is a great solution! Use the leftover yarn to create a colorful home item and a new favorite relaxing spot. The Stash Busting Monster Pouf is an easy-level pattern that you can customize in size and color. The finished piece can be used as an additional seat in your children’s room or a leg rest in the living room.
How Is The Pouf Constructed From Start To Finish?
The Stash Busting Monster Pouf by Katy Petersen is crocheted in joined rounds. You start with a magic ring and increase every round using spike single crochet stitches. Once the top panel is ready, you will continue crocheting the sides. The last step requires making the bottom part by decreasing stitches in every round.
How Much Yarn Will You Need?
To make a crochet pouf that’s 12” tall and 22” wide, you need approx. 1810 yards of medium-weight yarn. For a sturdy effect and a nice chunky feel, you crochet it by holding two strands of yarn together. The project visible in the photos was made using mostly Red Heart Super Saver.
What Can You Use To Fill The Pouf?
Proper stuffing is crucial for this crochet pouf project if you like it to be squishy and comfortable to sit on. Since the bottom is partially open, you can place whatever you want inside and take it out whenever you need. The designer put four blankets inside, but a great option also make towels, pillows, plastic bags, foam, or poly-fiberfill.
