The Linen Granny Square Pillows in Schachenmayr Catania free crochet pattern PDF is an 8-page A4 document with a pattern for a 42 x 42 cm pillow cover. It uses Schachenmayr Catania yarn, a sport weight cotton, and a 3 mm crochet hook. The design, S9027C, calls for 36 granny squares, each measuring 6 x 6 cm after blocking, plus a pillow form in a matching color.
What the pattern includes
The PDF gives full instructions for crocheting the granny squares, including the specific colors for each round—such as strawberry for round 3 and khaki for round 5. It also provides a placement diagram for sewing the squares together, using the color of the last round of each square for the seams. The gauge is stated as 1 granny square = 6 x 6 cm after blocking, so check your tension before starting.
Printing and using the PDF
Print the pattern on A4 paper at actual size—do not use fit-to-page scaling, as this can distort the diagram. Keep the placement diagram handy when assembling the squares. This pattern is useful if you enjoy crocheting home decor items and want a project that uses multiple colors of Catania yarn.
