Four pillows two ways! This mod pillow pattern comes with instructions for knitting the pillows in the round or knitting the pieces separately and seaming them together (perfect for a beginner!)
8" pillow: 1 hank each MC and A 12" pillow: 1 hank each MC and B 16" pillow: 1 hank MC, and 2 hanks each B and C 26" pillow: 3 hanks each MC, A, B and C
This is a really cute hat, but I had trouble with the crown shaping portion of the pattern and I don't think the gauge is done right. I just kept going until it wast he right length and then started the crown shaping. Turned out cute but it took me a while to figure out the crown.
The Title is very cute and so is the photo.

The directions are skimpy and would be difficult for a new knitter, although the pattern is quite easy, and the hat turned out great...I plan to make another very soon.
The pattern calls for four rows of stockinette at the bottom which, of course, immediately ROLLS! So, I unraveled and started with four rows of the broken rib K1P1 and it stays perfectly flat. Other than than, a very nice little number.
I loved the hat. I used Spud & Chloe yard as suggested in the pattern. My only issue was the hat turned out much larger than expected even after checking my gauge. I made another and reduced the needle size and made the smallest size and it fit my 6 year old granddaughter perfectly.
