Hi Da,
The stitches are tight enough to keep the stuffing in, so it’s not an issue. I hope this helps and you have a chance to make this cute pillow!

How do I prevent my polyfill from leaking out? It’s my first time knitting and I’m not sure about my gauge. If it’s a loose knit, will I need to put in a lining? And if so, should I just put in a piece of muslin from the top of the stuffing and tuck it into the bottom; or, put in the muslin first, then fill with polyfill and then just overlap the edges of the lining and finish the pillow?
Sorry for such a long question, but my anxiety over the stuffing leaking out, is sorta preventing me from starting!

Yes, the longer the chain you start with, the bigger the pillow! Good luck, Phyllis!

Hi Carolyn,

I’m so happy you are making the chenille pillow. I’m glad the instructions are helpful. Maybe try pulling more yarn for your loops so that they don’t slip and go away. If you watch the video, you can see that my loops are about 3-4 inches in length. I hope this helps. Let me know if that works. My daughter stole my pillow, and she has it in her room. I guess she loves it!

I am able to follow all the steps but as I work it the little Loops keep slipping back in and coming undone before I can get back to them. Should I put pencils or something in the loops to keep them from slipping back in as I work my way around? Even being very gentle the chenille is super slippery.
