Neck Pillow

What you will need:

Provo Craft Supplies:

Small blue size Knifty Knitter loom

Yarn needle





Original Neck Pillow Pattern by Clella Gustin, published by Provo Craft




Other Supplies:

One skein of yarn - Jamie by Lion Brand Pale Green

Instructions

1. Use 2 pieces of yarn. You can use the same skein and start the yarn from the center and take the outside end and put them together.
2. Knit until your piece measures about 20 inches or about 58 rows.
3. Tie the end in the same manner as when you are finishing a hat.
4. Run a double strand of yarn through the loops on the pegs and pull tight and tie off.
5. Stuff the tube with a soft stuffing (make it firm).
6. When you have it stuffed use the blue yarn needle and run a double strand of yarn through the loops on the beginning end.

Here are some additional views of the neck pillow pattern. These were loomed by Barbie Martin.
The first is done with 2 strands of medium (4) weight yarn. Barbie notes that it still looked a bit thin, so she added one strand of fun fur and came up with the lovely pillow below:

Woven Scarf

Instructions
1. Using 2 strands of the Micro Spun together, e wrap the first 2 pegs and skip the next peg, then wrap the next peg.
2. Continue on around the loom, wrapping every other peg to the last 2 pegs.
3. Wrap these and knit, using the pegs wrapped and missing the pegs that are in between.
4. Knit until your scarf is 36 inces long or the length you would like.
5. Using the Yarn needle, weave the Incredible Ribbon through the bars in the knitting. ( This will take some time to do.)
6. Weave 2 strands in each of the bar rows.
7. Weave like a basket. Leave about 24'? of fringe on each end.
8. Tie 1 or 2 love-knots in each of the ribbon fringe strings, and you have a fun scarf that will flaunt your creative flair.
