This pillow is created on any double knitting board that can get the gauge. Many brands of adjustable boards, some fixed boards and many homemade boards will work. 50 pegs on each side are required. Matching gauge perfectly is not necessary to get a nice pillow. It is helpful to know how to knit double board stockinette before beginning. A directory of video links is included in the pattern to help knitters review the basic skills and demonstrate the new skills of vertical stripe creation by this intarsia method and cable creation. The written pattern includes complete instructions for knitting the pillow but the techniques are fully described in the videos and only summarized in the text.
