Looking for a comfortable spot to rest on? Try making this crochet pouf designed by MayaB. It’s a large-sized floor pillow in a clean round shape. The pouf features contrasting stripes on the sides for added visual appeal and an optional bottom opening that allows for convenient storage of blankets, duvets, and seasonal clothes.
Is Maya’s Pouf Suitable For Beginner Crocheters?
Yes, it is. The Maya’s Pouf works up very quickly made with super bulky yarn and a large hook. You will use only basic stitches to make it, including chains and double crochets. It’s a great opportunity for beginners to practice crocheting in rounds, increasing and decreasing stitches, and doing simple color changes.
Which Yarn Is Best For Crocheting Maya’s Pouf?
The designer recommends crocheting this floor pouf with T-shirt yarn. It features a distinctive texture resembling a thick ribbon tape, but it’s very soft to the touch. For example, you can use Hooplayarn Hoopla or go for a brand of your own choice. Work your project by pairing this yarn with a 10 mm crochet hook.
What Is The Purpose Of The Removable Lid?
The pattern provides instructions for making a crochet floor pouf with a removable bottom lid. This ensures easy access and allows you to replace the contents whenever you need. You can also use your pouf as a storage container to hold blankets, pillows, towels, and soft toys.
