Knitted pillow

When I came across a knitted pillow in “Canadian Living” magazine I immediately fell in love with and had to have it:) Next thing I know, I was picking up some yarn and needles to get started.
After watching a few Youtube tutorials (had to catch up on the terminology: k3tog, bind off?), I was knitting all my troubles away!
Knitting is like a meditation of sorts. There is something magical about the whole process; repeating the pattern, switching the work from one needle to another, counting stitches, watching your hands move as if they’ve always known how to.
It's my favorite winter evening activity.
