My new Bubble Stitch Heart Pillow is the perfect gift to knit up for everyone you love! My popular Bubble Stitch texture really pops, looking best when knitted with two or more yarn colors. Mix and match color combinations to make your own creative design!

Follow my easy to understand knitting pattern with chart to create two heart shapes. Finish by seaming the heart shapes together and stuff lightly with some poly-fil.

Pillow Size: Each pillow measures 15” wide x 14” tall x 4” thick. (38 cm x 36 cm x 10 cm)

Active Time to Complete: 6 to 8 hours

STEPS TO COMPLETE
1: Make Two Heart Humps
2: Knit Body of Heart
3: Knit One More Heart Shape
4: Sew Two Heart Shapes Together
5: Fill Heart with Stuffing

Smaller Needle Size: Rather than using in the recommended 13 US sized knitting needles with super bulky weight yarn, this pattern uses a much smaller 8 US (5.0 mm) needle size. Doing so creates a tighter weave, allowing the bubble stitch texture be more distinct when stuffed into a pillow. It also helps to close up the gaps created by the knit below bubble technique so that the stuffing isn’t visible.
