Materials:
- 4 Skeins of Premier Yarns Couture Jazz yarn
- Scissors
- Pillow insert that is 18″ x 18″. I used a pollyfiber pillow, you can also use a down pillow insert to add more cushion
Pattern:
- Cast on 11 stitches using the long tail cast on method
- Arm knit for 19 rows
- Bind off and knot the end by making a half loop and pull the rest of the left over skein through the loop
- Without cutting the left over skein from your work, fold your work in half inside out
- Line up the edges and begin sewing two of the sides together by weaving the left over yarn through the lined up stitches
- Once you get to the third edge flip your work right side out and place your pillow insert inside
- Sew the last edge up using the remaining left over yarn and knot the end by making a double knot
- Cut the excess yarn a few inches from the knot and weave it through the edge tucking the end into the pillow
- Cut the excess from the knots where you added on the new skeins while knitting
- Also tighten and cut the tail from the cast on edge
Finished product is approximately 18″ x 18″.

Hi! I’m wondering if you can help me…I want to try this pillow but I’m thinking of using the Lion Brand Thick and Quick yarn and doubling it up. Would I need 8 skeins then? Or because the Couture Jazz is not as long could I still use 4?
Thanks!
Hello Maggie…
I would like to offer my ‘congratulations’ on the happy news of your pregnancy you so very kindly shared with us all.
I am trying to source an alternative product to the Couture Jazz, as it’s so difficult to get over here in the UK. I would like to try an undyed Roving Wool for the Arm Knitting but am struggling with quantities. I can buy in ounces.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated…
Kindest regards
Deborah <3

Hi! I don’t knit. I wouldn’t even know where to start to learn. But I would like to buy 6 of those ivory pillows! Is that even possible?
