This pullover is a little different from the one's you may be used to. It is knit from side to side, allowing you to get those flattering vertical stripes without using any bobbins! We chose 5 colors of donegal tweed for our stripes - the 6th ball you need is for the trim - so order an extra ball of your favorite color.

The first pillow with the square inside the squares is a fun pillow from the Vogue Knitting on the Go Pillow book. We used Zara to make it. The pattern calls for a linen stitch. This stitch makes the stitches tight together so that a pillow will not show through the knitted fabric. It also gives the pillow a nice texture. You just need one ball of each color. The pillow is a little on the advanced side because you need to use bobbins.
The second pillow is the one that has four squares. It is knit in the Alpaca using a double strand of yarn. We used shades of grey and brown but you could certainly use bolder colors. Again, you just need 1 ball of each color.

This baby blanket is perfect for knitters of all levels. It is knit in Stockinette stitch and has a simple crochet border around the edges. All you have to do is knit a row, purl a row for 30 inches. We use 2 strands of Zara held together to make this blanket a relatively quick knit. We also stripe it to add a little interest. There is one color that runs throughout the entire blanket and four other colors that we alternate, making nice wide stripes. Zara is machine washable in cold water and must be lay flat to dry.
