The Botanical Mini Pillow is a beautiful pillow that showcases delicate lace stitches with a centered floral motif on one side and multicolored stripes on the other. Both sides are worked from the center out using a mix of yarns, creating a hexagonal shape. This pattern is perfect for all levels of knitters as the lace is geared towards a beginner level, yet the different stitch patterns keep you entertained.
