Star Trek Yellow Command Pillow

Here are pictures of the finished Star Trek Command (yellow) Pillow. I'll post the pattern and chart when I'm finished writing it up. The finished size is 14" and worked entirely in single crochet stitches.

I'm in the process of working on the other two pillows. Red (Security) and Blue (Science). I'll post those patterns when I'm done with them as well.

Materials used: Red Heart Yarn - gold and black; I Love This Yarn (From Hobby Lobby) - Buttercup; and 1 14" pillow form.

World of Warcraft Horde Banner

Here are a few pictures of the World of Warcraft Horde Banner, which is done entirely in single crochet stitches. (I will post the pattern and chart when I'm done writing it up.)

I used two wooden dowel rods to hold the shape and for hanging. The top dowel rod is 25" and the bottom (hidden behind the banner just above the middle point) is 18". The top one is longer than the width of the banner to make it easy to hang it up. The bottom rod is just to provide the bottom some weight to maintain its shape.

I'll be working on the Alliance banner soon. 

Single crochet

Single crochet is probably the most basic stitch. The result, depending on the yarn or thread, is often a thicker fabric that doesn't have much give or ability to drape. Using a larger hook will result in a lighter fabric with more give to it.
The stitch is marked with an X on crochet charts, and in patterns its abbreviation is "sc."


Here's a link to a Crochet Geek video about how to make it.
