Easy Crochet Floor Pouf Pattern

This crochet floor pouf pattern is easy to follow and quick to create. If you are looking for an awesome crochet project then you have come to the right place!

Kim from 733, Mandy from Sugar Bee Crafts and I have been having fun hosting Project Crochet all month long. Before wrapping up this series I wanted to share the Crochet Floor Pouf Pattern that I completed. I was inspired by all of the crochet/knit floor poufs in stores because they seem to be everywhere now!

This is actually a pretty quick and easy project to crochet. If you have crocheted a hat before then you can crochet a floor pouf. Most of the stitches are ones that a beginner has used. If you need a refresher for crochet in the round or front post crochet be sure to check out my learn to crochet ebook. In the midst of creating this crochet floor pouf pattern I discovered that it was spelled “pouf” and not “poof”. And did you know that an ottoman or floor pouf is called a hassock out East? What would you call this floor pouf!?

Materials:

Choose a bulky, heavy weight yarn.

I used Bernat Roving yarn {the colour is Bark} with a 9mm hook.

Approximately 5 skeins of yarn {120 yards each} are needed for a pouf of this size with 32 oz of poly fill {stuffing}.

Abbreviations

st = stitch
sl st = slip stitch
ch = chain
dc = double crochet
fpdc = front post double crochet

Crochet Floor Pouf Pattern

ch 4, sl st into the first chain to create a circle, ch 2

Round 1: dc 10 into the circle, sl st to join, ch 2 {10}

Round 2: dc into first st, fpdc around the same st, repeat around, sl st to join, ch 2 {20}

Round 3: dc into first two st, fpdc around the second st, repeat around, sl st to join, ch 2 {30}

Round 4: dc into first three st, fpdc around the third st, repeat around, sl st to join, ch 2 {40}

Round 5: dc into first four st, fpdc around the fourth st, repeat around, sl st to join, ch 2 {50}

Round 6: dc into first five st, fpdc around the fifth st, repeat around, sl st to join, ch 2 {60}

Round 7: dc into first six st, fpdc around the sixth st, repeat around, sl st to join, ch 2 {70}

Round 8: dc into first seven st, fpdc around the seventh st, repeat around, sl st to join, ch 2 {80}

Round 9: dc into the first eight st, fpdc around the eighth st, repeat around, sl st to join, ch 2 {90}

Round 10: dc into the first nine st, fpdc around the ninth st, repeat around, sl st to join, ch 2 {100}

** at this point you no longer want to increase stitches so you will follow the pattern created in round 10

Round 11-24: dc into the first nine st, skip the tenth st, fpdc around the previous fpdc, repeat around, sl st to join, ch 2 {100}

Round 25: dc into first seven st, dc decrease, fpdc around the previous fpdc, repeat around, sl st to join, ch 2 {90}

Round 26: dc into first six st, dc decrease, fpdc around the previous fpdc, repeat around, sl st to join, ch 2 {80}

Round 27: dc into first five st, dc decrease, fpdc around the previous fpdc, repeat around, sl st to join, ch 2 {70}

Round 28: dc into first four st, dc decrease, fpdc around the previous fpdc, repeat around, sl st to join, ch 2 {60}

Round 29: dc into first three st, dc decrease, fpdc around the previous fpdc, repeat around, sl st to join, ch 2 {50}

Round 30: dc into first two st, dc decrease, fpdc around the previous fpdc, repeat around, sl st to join, ch 2 {40}

**at this point add the stuffing. Poly fill will only work if your stitches are small and tight. If you have larger stitches, with bigger holes I would recommend sewing a cotton bag to place the stuffing in before placing it into the pouf.

Round 31: dc into first st, dc decrease, fpdc around the previous fpdc, repeat around, sl st to join, ch 2 {30}

Round 32: dc decrease, fpdc around the previous fpdc, repeat around, sl st to join, ch 2 {20}

Round 33: dc decrease around, sl st to join {10}

using the end of the yarn, pull to tighten the hole and use a yarn needle with the yarn to sew the hole closed.

A crochet floor pouf is a fun accent to any home. This one took a couple of evenings of crochet for me. We are enjoying it from every angle…
