Remember the most boring soothing knitting ever?  The pillow case made with pencil roving in lovely shades of calm and sleep?

Yeah, it’s fought its way back into my lap for some knitting time.  But before I could go too much farther with it, I needed to actually get the pillow it’s going to go around.  I want the final product it to be pretty big, so I went with one that’s 18×26.  So if I left well enough alone, we’d be somewhere like this.

But I am not leaving well enough alone.  Because what fun would there be in that.  I’m doing some pillow surgery.  This should go super well.  I’m sure nothing will go wrong with this plan at all.
