Description
This Pretty House Pillow knitting pattern uses a combination of intarsia and stranded (fair isle) knitting. A large coloured chart is provided for you to follow. This is fun to knit and it is exciting when the house appears as you progress. You could personalise the cushion by using different colours for the door, roof, windows and curtains.
It is knitted in one piece and the back has a four button opening. You can either buy 4 buttons or knit the buttons in matching yarn colours (instructions are given in the pattern).

Arrived quickly and great the color coded sizing. There were a few places where the directions were a little unclear, though that could have been my lack of familiarity with intarsia patterned knitting. The hood, in particular, seems oversized for the size of the sweater. That said, I would order from this seller again.
