This pillow cover was woven on the Kromski, rigid heddle loom. The back side is solid black. The pillow was an old, faded one that now has been reborn. The yarn was a mark down at Webb's store in Northampton, MA and is a bulky, fun yarn with occassional bows of matching roving. Yarns like these are fun to use, the final look is very whimsical I think.
