Garter Block Four Patch Pillow Cover Using Berroco Ultra Alpaca Chunky
The Design
Modern, retro, romantic, eclectic—whatever style you prefer, this Garter Blocks pillow cover will fit right in. Simply knit in strips of garter stitch (with a little seaming later), it’s a relaxing, satisfying, and perfectly portable project. It’ll be finished and resting on your sofa—or bed, or chair, or floor—before you know it!
We found Berroco Ultra Alpaca Chunky to be the perfect mix of soft and quick in our search for cuddly, huggable yarns. It blends the softness of alpaca with the springy reliability of Peruvian Highland wool at a nice, chunky gauge. And its saturated, heathered colors provide a great range of choices for any home.
