By using quality yarn and this pattern, you can create the exact pillows that your sofa needs for support.
For Pillows 1 and 2, you will need:
Materials:
• Approximately 180 yards of a Super Bulky yarn (5 or 6 wraps/inch). I used 2 skeins of Wisdom Poems Forte, 100% wool, Super Bulky, 90 yards per skein) 1004 “Amazon.
• Size 13 needles
• 1 tapestry needle
• 1 Pillow form measuring 12” x 18” (about 30.5cm x 46cm.)
Gauge: 8 stitches and 12 rows = 4” If you know that your gauge is loose use a smaller needle, maybe size 11’s. Conversely, if you’re a tight knitter, use a larger needle like size 13’s. Additionally, the row gauge isn’t critical, because if it is not exactly 12 rows per 4”, you can continue knitting until the desired length has been knitted, or stop knitting sooner if your row gauge is less than 12 rows per 4”.
For Pillow 3 you will need:
Materials:
• 2 Skeins Malabrigo Caracol, (100% merino wool, Super Bulky, 90 yards per skein) in colorway Sunset 96.
• Size 13 needles
• 1 tapestry needle
• 1 Pillow form measuring 11” x 17”
Gauge: 10 stitches and 16 rows = 4” See other gauge notes above.
