pinwheel pouf for 18" dolls - new crochet pattern by tara schreyer.

I've been hard at work over the last many months, developing a new line of clothing and accessories for dolls. Here is my first design, for you and your little ones to enjoy!  More designs to follow in the next few days, so stay tuned!

Pinwheel Pouf for 18" Dolls

Poufs are everywhere in home decor! Every little girl needs one! They can be used as a seat, a foot stool or a floor pillow, whatever the occasion.

This pouf is crocheted in the round using only post stitches giving it beautiful texture and style. You have the option of two different designs - solid or striped, as well as two options for finishing.
 
The finished size of the pouf is approximately a 37" circumference and 12" diameter and is designed to fit 18" dolls such as American Girl® or Maplelea®.

One of our dear customers, Colleen, kindly took the time to send us some pictures of her Pinwheel Pouf that she recently completed.  Along with the photos, she commented "It was a labor of love for sure but couldn't be happier with it!" 

 

We agree!  It is a fair amount of work but it is worth it.  Look at the amazing results she got for her patience and determination!  And now she is able to put her feet up and enjoy the fruits of her labour!

She lined it with turquoise flannel fabric for the purpose of keeping the stuffing contained and discovered that the colour shows through the small holes a bit and gives it a delightful contrast to the white. I might have to try that myself next time around! She then put in a bag worth of polyfil around the edges, set in a throw pillow that she wasn't using anymore, and then filled it in with another bag of polyfil. 

We love your pouf, Colleen! Beautiful work! Thanks for sharing your project with us!

finished project.

It's pretty much impossible to find a contemporary footstool that is low enough to slide under a chair so I was thrilled when Tara came out with her latest design for the the "Pinwheel Pouf".  Tara's always had a good eye for home decor and whenever I want to know what the hot new trend or colour is I just ask Tara.

To create the footstool that you see pictured I just eliminated a few increased rounds as well as some plain rounds from Tara's pattern for the Pinwheel Pouf. I then stuffed my pouf with thick foam topped with a layer of quilt batting. Thanks Tara for another great crochet design!
