Notes

Five strands of yarn held together!

This is a fun knit and a quick “win” when you need a break from your other projects.

I wanted a decent-sized pillow, so I continued the increases after row 20 until I reached:
{k1, kfb, k30, kfb, k1} 2 times … 72 sts.

Knit 12 rounds (pattern calls for 7 rounds).

Decrease at the sides, 3 times (pattern decreases twice).

Divide lobes and decrease on both sides of each lobe twice (pattern decreases once). Follow pattern as written from round 33.

(These are photos of the Queen Street heart smiley meme. I think it’s someone’s graffiti tag.)
