Your pillow came out really good. I hope mine comes out as good as yours. 😄
You can do it!
Beautiful ❤
Thank you! 😊
Thank you for sharing this tutorial. I just finished 2 pillows.Very happy with the results
Wonderful!
My pillow measures 18” across even though I put 25 stitches across when I began. Should I make pillow 36” long and use 18” pillow?
Thank you for the tutorial. It's exactly what I was I was looking for and plan to watch it many times as I want make several pillows for holiday gifts. Am I correct that so long as I buy a washable pillow insert this pillow can be washed over and over again it's put together. Is that correct? I'm a newbie to this. My last project I bought a non-washable pillow and it sort of exploded in my washer when I washed it. 🙃
Glad it was helpful! You should be able to launder the pillow if you have a washable insert. I haven't tried laundering mine though. Check the laundering instructions on the yarn too, to be sure!
Can you do the whole pillow in the knit stitch rather then alternating stitches?
When knitting you have to alternate between the stocking and garter stitches. If you do not, the project will curl. So, I recommend at least alternating to a garter stitch after several rows. This is also the case when knitting with loop yarn.
Thanks for sharing the pillow tutorial, I did have a question. All the videos I've seen show cutting the loops open from the bottom, yet it looked like you cut the loop open from the top and also left a very short tail. Any particular reason?
Can you point me to the section of the video where I did this? Where I cut the loops to make a long strand, I cut from the bottom of the loop and I'm not sure where I left a short tail?
Needlepointers Thanks for your reply, I went back and looked again and I must have had a brain blip or something lol, watching in the middle of the night might have had something to do with what it. Anyway you didn't cut the loop from the top. I apologise. The yarn tail just looked kinda short.
@@texasmimi1954 Thanks so much for checking again! I hope you make some loop yarn projects! We also have a loop yarn heart pillow which is really cute! needlepointers.com/main/youtubecontent.aspx?TH-camPageID=311
How can I close pillow so the inside pillow can be taken out
I am not sure how you could do this with this pillow pattern.
Can you do the whole pillow in stocking
stitch?
When knitting you have to alternate between the stocking and garter stitches. If you do not, the project will curl. So, I recommend at least alternating to a garter stitch after several rows.
How many bundles of the yarn would I need to buy for that size ???
Hi! The pattern which is available through this page (near the end) www.needlepointers.com/main/youtubecontent.aspx?youtubepageid=281 has how many skeins of yarn you need. Keep in mind that loop yarn skeins are different sizes so if you purchase a different brand or type then you may need more/less yarn.
I was wondering how do I start the second ball of yarn when finished with the first ball?
Hi Chris, great question! We have a video tutorial available here www.needlepointers.com/main/youtubecontent.aspx?youtubepageid=274. Happy Looping!
@@Needlepointers thank you so much. So easy. Love this new way of doing knitting.
Can you do a big circle rug. Thank you. Love using the loop yarn.
I will try to come up with a rug pattern. I am currently working on a blanket pattern.
@@Needlepointers thats great. Thank you
How do you wash the pillow?
You should follow the washing instructions on both the pillowform and the yarn. Happy Stitching!
How many balls of yarn did you use?
Hi Heather. I used two balls of yarn. Be careful because different manufacturers yarn is different lengths.
How many foundation loops would you suggest for a 26x26 pillow?
Mandeline, sorry I'm not sure how many you would need for that sized pillow. I recommend that you hold the yarn up across the pillow and maybe add a couple of stitches. Stitch like 2 rows and then check to see if it looks like it will be the correct size. It should reach to the side seams of the pillow. If necessary, pull out and adjust. Happy stitching!
Needlepointers one more question: do you have a video or a tip for how to thread such thick string through a tapestry needle? Having trouble with that. Thanks.
@@MTA11283 We actually do.... check out this video th-cam.com/video/BSop5LmF5es/w-d-xo.html
I had to add 4 loops
What is the size of your pillow?
The pattern calls for a 20" square pillow form.
