April KAL

Join me this April for Cable Channel, a stylish pillow featuring an original cable pattern.  Knit in HiKoo Kenzie, the design creates a rich fabric to add beauty and texture to any decor.  Pillows provide the perfect platform to explore new techniques and hone the finishing skills.  They also make great gifts!

Cable Channel is knit in one piece with simple seaming and features a button closure to allow for easy washing and assembly.  The front and back are knit in different stitch patterns to keep the project interesting and texturally charming.  Both written and charted instructions, along with video support, are provided to guarantee success.

HiKoo Kenzie delivers the excellent stitch definition and durability best suited for casual luxury.  Available in over 25 colors, there is a shade to match every décor or provide that perfect “pop” of color.  With the wide selection of Skacel Buttons, it’s a snap to find the perfect button.

Check out all of the vibrant colors of Kenzie and browse the beautiful Skacel button catalog.  The possibilities are endless!
