The Cable Knit Pillow. I've been enamored with them probably since this time last year, and after seeing this one in the Nate Berkus collection, I went a-thrifting and found a nice sweater to transform into my very own cable knit sweater pillow.
I would like to say that this was one of the easiest projects ever, but that would be a fib. Maybe for a more seasoned seamstress, scratch that, anyone but me, it would be a fairly easy project.
I did the standard measuring and sewing, but because of the stretch factor, I ended up sewing a seam again, 2 inches in and had a little waste.
I used a down insert, it gives it that squishy look that I really like. And even though I didn't attempt the fancy button treatment like on Nate's, I like how it turned out.
And I think might want to attempt another one, having learned from this one!
Do you like the look of sweater pillows?
