Here's a picture of just my design. This pillow is knitted in Wool of the Andes Superwash. Making this pillow was my first time using that yarn and I really liked it! It's quite a bit softer than normal WofA. The pattern has options for either a cabled front and stockinette back or two cabled sides. It's knitted in two pieces and seamed/grafted together at the sides and top. The pillow cover fits snugly on an 18" pillow form.
There are several patterns in this book that I'd like to knit if I get the chance.
The Peaks Pillow below is a fun colorwork pattern that I think could be super cool in less Southwest-y colors (I'm not into Southwest style.)
Holli Yeoh's Shadow Weave Placemats are way, way cooler than Ravelry knitters are giving them credit for. Take a close look at that ombre- so cool.
Overall another great Knit Picks collection. I really love working with them- they're so easy to work with, and the books always turn out so great! I've got a huge backlog of stuff I want to knit from Knit Picks collections. Wish I could knit in my sleep. I'd be so productive.
We really need to put our heads together & figure out how to sleep knit! My queue is way too long and life is way too short. I really like your pillow design, and could see it in not just my house but my sister's too.
ReplyDeleteI just heard you were affected by the flooding; hope everyone is ok & you can get lots of help in getting back to "normal". I did buy some patterns, and called out other Ravelers on my blog, and will be praying for all the flooded folks.
