Isn’t it just the cutest? The best part is that you don’t need a sewing machine to make your own.
- Pair of adult sized polka dot tube socks
- Poly-fil
- Glue gun and needle and thread
Begin by stuffing your socks with the poly-fil until you have something a little like this:
Now tuck one of the open ends of the sock into the other open end and use the hot glue to attach the outer sock to the inner sock.
Now fold the ends over and cross them to create a pretzel shape. Use the needle and thread to sew the ends of the sock onto the bottom portion of the pretzel with a few simple stitches as well as sew the socks together were they cross on each side of the top sock.
And that’s it! You now have yourself an adorable funfetti pretzel pillow. This pillow would be perfect in a kids room or even to add a bit of colorful quirkiness to your own sofa.

Thanks so much Emma! I pretty much love every thing Joy Cho does and has, so I was tickled to be able to recreate this pillow for myself!
