Crochet these adorable balloon-like Alphabet Pillows by Yarnspirations. These pillows are 13" tall and consistent across the entire alphabet patterns provided.
Letters A to Z are provided in the pattern. This allows you to choose initials that are daring to spell entire names in pillow format.
I visualize these as learning resources for teaching children colours and the alphabet simultaneously. Imagine these hanging up in a classroom or lining the upper walls in a school for children to help them learn. I remember many classrooms I was in as a child where the letters and numbers were above the chalkboards to help me.
These patterns are not complex. You must know how to read crochet diagrams to follow these. I will have tutorials for each letter available. I have provided a link below on reading crochet diagrams to help you solve this.

Alphabet Diagrams Blown Up
Daniel has made a mini booklet of all 26 letters in the alphabet, blown up to 1 letter per page. This will help you read the diagrams better. You can download this PDF booklet and/or print the letters you want specifically.
This booklet was made possible with the help of Yarnspirations. You can only find this booklet here in this article to download.

Hi. I'm stuck already on the letter A. Right leg row two. How does that end? Is it 12 SC and chain 1? I thought the slant meant sc2tog but the crochet would then decrease where I would expect it to increase for the diagonal of the A. Thanks for any help. I can't wait till the video tutorials as I want to make it for a present for a birthday in May.
Thanks

It's 12 Chain... and then attach to Leg 1. YOu use that chain when passing back across.
Madeline says
Thank you for the reply. I'm still stuck. So I chain 12. Turn. 11 sc. Chain 1 then it's the next stitch I'm not sure of. I first learnt to crochet from your videos Mikey so I'm sure they will be fantastic when they are done. Thanks again. Madeline.

Do you happen to have a tutorial for the letter O. Thank you
Mikey says
No, I'm sorry. I just did the A as an example on learning how to read the diagram. I'm sorry.
