Knitting Pattern
Today’s freebie vintage pattern is a knitted chair back and arm pieces. Used to protect the chair’s upholstery from dirty heads and hands, I’ve seen several done in crochet but this is the first knitted pattern I’ve come across.
It’s a pretty pattern with fringe that would also look nice as a couch pillow.
Materials needed are Pearl Cotton Size 5 and a pair of Knitting Pins size No. 1 (2.5mm size).
