English, German, Danish and Norwegian knitting pattern

Patchknit Pillow is a knitted log cabin cushion inspired by traditional needlework methods such as patchwork, quilting and granny square blankets. Patchknit Pillow is knitted back and forth in garter stitch. The front piece is assembled from a total of 9 patches as well as a single-colored back piece. The cushion is sewn together with mattress stitch and finally a zip at the bottom is attached.

The measurements of the pillow are 50x50 cm. The measurements in the instructions are calculated according to the gauge given. Remember to work a gauge swatch first to determine the correct needle size. The gauge was taken after washing. Change the needle size, if necessary, to obtain the correct gauge.
