CABLED PILLOWS

Knit Simple Fall 2014 #12, #13, and #14

Design by Erica Schlueter

The three-cable version (gray) features nubby seed-stitch panels; the two-cable (blue) uses both seed stitch and reverse stockinette; the one-cable version (orange) employs a background of reverse stockinette stitch. Chunky yarns make knitting all three a breeze. The two- and three-cable covers are sewn shut over purchased pillow forms, while the one cable version has a button flap closure in back.
