I found this blog and became totally obsessed with the idea of filling my house with colorful crochet items. Who can blame me? Who doesn’t want bright and cheerful items hanging around their couches? Screw you if you think they’re kitschy.
If you must know, I’m cheap. I’m using these to cover some old throw pillows that someone gave us when we got married. I need some pillows to brighten up the living room and these pillows, to be frank, have a color palate that screams early-to-mid 90s. Also, they’ve been well-used by my children and their hoodlum friends, and have stains of questionable origins that no number of washings can remove. The grannies cover all offenses and satisfies my ultimate and thrifty obsession with not spending any more money on my house than I have to.
