This pattern is worked in the round with 2 strands of Heartland held together. It might be helpful to wind the skeins into double-stranded cakes or balls before starting. You will only use a little of the 3rd and 4th skeins.

This is knitted to cover an 18”x18” pillow form, but it would be easy enough to modify the pattern for a larger pillow.

Gauge is 12 st and 18 rows in 4”

I used Lion Brand Heartland, and a 32” circ in size US11 (8.0mm)

As mentioned, I bought 4 skeins of Heartland, then wound them together into 4 balls of double-stranded yarn. I used 2 full skeins (which made 2 double-stranded balls) and just a bit of the 3rd double-stranded ball, so you should have more than enough left over to make a hat or something else small.
