The front of the cardigan is now the back of the pillow, and by conserving the buttons, it's easily removable for washing, etc.
It's hard to believe that I first knit this sweater about 20 years ago! What surprises me the most about it is how many lights I used. Was it because that's what I could find in my mum's studio? Or was it what I wanted? I'll never know......but I do know that it's great to have this relic around once again, if only to serve as a reminder that I've done it before.
