Fasten off, making sure to leave a long tail (about 20″), and weave in the rest of your ends (excluding the long tail).
Repeat this process to make a second circle!
Sewing Your Circular Pillow Together
- Place the circles on top of each other, making sure that the right sides are facing outward.
- Thread the yarn needle with the long tail you left (about 20″), and begin to whip stitch around the circle.
- When you have sewn halfway around your circle, insert your pillow form.
- Continue to whip stitch around your circle.
- When you've sewn your last pair of stitches together, work your remaining tail through your work.
- Make a knot before you cut your yarn tail; this ensures your work security and stops it from unraveling between washes.
Now, you have your complete Velvet Circular Throw Pillow!
