My stormy grey bed needed a pop of color. I dreamt of a pillow that was not too big, not too small, not too complicated, not too easy, a pillow that was just…right! And the Goldilocks’ Pillow was born!

Knit flat and then seamed, this is a simple, relaxing knit that can be finished in a few short hours. The back of the pillowcase has an envelope closure allowing for easy pillow removal.

This is the perfect project for that super bulky yarn hiding in your stash!
