Teach Yourself Visually Knitting

(Michael S) #1

Textured Pillow Cover.


Making a hand-knit pillow cover is
a great way to practice new texture,
cable, or color stitch patterns
because you don’t have to worry
about shaping. Be sure to get your
gauge correct, though, so that your
cover will fit properly onto your
pillow form. This pillow cover
is worked as two squares that are
crocheted together.
