I’m a huge fan of knitting patterns for the home because you can only have so many scarves, right? When I first started knitting, everyone got a scarf for Christmas. I was so excited to just have finished projects and sweaters were so hard. Even socks seemed impossible to finish. Knitted home decor projects, on the other hand, were a breeze! Making a pillow case or a basket was fun and I needed that stuff around the house (and you know I had the yarn to spare). A pillow case is basically a scarf sewn at the edges, so if you’ve mastered patterns and scarf making, you can definitely make this pattern!
This knitting pattern is listed as intermediate, but you can definitely tackle it if you’ve been knitting the basics for a little while.
We’d love to see your finished pillows! Share them on our Facebook page so we can see how awesome they turned out!
