Color Block Pillow
Through the Eyes of a Machine Knitter
This design was curated from a pillow in a high-end catalogue. The panels are asymmetric and the original was made with a felted wool.

The simple design and construction allow for lots of design options:
- We used 2 colors of a fine wool yarn and twisted them for the appearance of a 3rd Marled color
- Knit in 100% wool and felt the pieces to mimic the original
- Use the purl side as the "right/ public" side
- Personalize the blocks with an Isolated Motif . Hearts, or initials anyone?
- Knit the entire pillow in 1 piece using Intarsia | Picture Knitting
- Knit in panels and Sew-As-You-Go
