Knit Pillow Cover Pattern & Yarn Pack 16
Knit Pillow Cover Pattern & Yarn Pack 16
Looking for a chic, home accessory project that incorporates multiple colors, without the need to weave in any ends? Love an any gauge, NO MATH pattern that allows you to choose your own mix of textures to create something totally unique? Enter my new log cabin pillow cover! It's worked from the center out, giving you total control over the finished dimensions. Step-by-step instructions are given for this fantastic technique, which puts you in the driver's seat. There's even a coloring page included, so you can map out your project ahead of time! Best of all, the pattern is beginner friendly; you need only know how to cast on, knit, purl (optional!), bind off, and pick up stitches.
In this kit, you will receive 5 skeins of coordinated yarn of various weights, in shades of pink, red and purple, as well as a print copy of the pattern. Please see photos above for each skein’s individual yardage; the total yardage for this pack is 404 yards. This yarn pack is intended to create the front of your pillow cover; you will need additional yarn for the back and may or may not need additional yarn for the front of your pillow, depending on what size you choose to make. I approximate that this yarn pack will create a pillow front up to the 16” size. Please understand that because this is an any gauge, any texture pattern, yardage needs will vary from knitter to knitter.
The finished pillows and other props shown in the photos are for inspirational purposes only; they are not included with your purchase.
You will need:
* Straight OR circular knitting needles, in the size of your choice
* Scissors
* Blunt Needle
* Pillow insert in your chosen size: 12”, 14”, 16”, 18”, 20” or 24” square are common; instructions are given for modifying to a rectangle, if you prefer that shape.
