As the days grow short, we return inwards to the hearth. Beautiful meandering cables cross, then depart from another, then cross again, symbolizing the nature of friendships.

Available in 4 standard throw pillow sizes, this adorable cushion cover knitting pattern works up in no time using an affordable, chunky weight yarn so you can knit a few to gift for all occasions, and a few to keep yourself.

A simple pattern knit flat and then seamed at the end with button closure, this cushion cover knitting pattern is the perfect gift knitting project.
