The Winter Solstice Pillow is the second pattern in the Season of Pillows series. One side features an all-over cable stitch pattern reminiscent of winter winds rippling over snow creating snowdrifts. The other side features a combination of smooth stockinette stitches and rippling cabled stitches seamed together in a sleek and modern formation.

The Winter Solstice Pillow is knit in the beautiful Meadow DK in a colorway designed specifically for this design.
