Pillow Knitting Pattern
The pillow pattern for today is from a 1916 Bear Brand Blue Book of Worsted Work the 14th Volume. The knitting pattern texture is great and it has tassels at both ends.
Bear Brand Shetland Floss
The pattern requires Bear Brand Shetland Floss in blue and sand. This yarn is no longer available. I believe it was a 100% wool, lightweight two-ply yarn, like a lace or baby/fingering weight that’s used to make summer sweaters, dresses, scarfs and children’s knit wear. If you’ll be using the pillow for more than decoration, you may want to use an acrylic, washable yarn.
Bolster Pillow Form
This neck pillow uses a bolster pillow form that is 22 by 8 inches. I found one that is 20 by 8 inches that you may be able to use. There is no gauge stats with this antique knitting pattern. Given that, you’ll have to work out what size would be best.
