Coco Pillow set
PDF PATTERN
Say hi to the Coco Pillow Set! The pattern includes instructions to knit three different sizes of the same pillow design and options for working a full-knit pillow with buttons or a fabric-backed pillow. The pattern stitch is highly addictive and perfect for flat knitting! My testers had great fun with them and I hope you will too!
This is a perfect project for leftover yarn and to make the most of your beautiful Nutiden stash.
