Ding Dong Merrily on High is a fun, festive design for a cusion/pillow with a Scandinavian flavour.

(Please note it does not claim to be an ‘authentic’ Scandinavian design)

This pattern is knit in Jamieson’s of Shetland Double Knitting 100% Shetland wool on 3.75mm needles.

You will need approximately 75g of each colour.

Substitute yarns may work to different size and tension.

To finish you will need a 16 or 18 inch cushion pad depending on your tension (you do not want to over-stretch your knitting but do want a nice, plump, full cushion) plus a yarn needle. Exact tension is not critical.

The pattern is written to knit flat, but instructions are given to knit in the round if that is your preference.
