Description
Knitting cushions is now the big thing. Over the last few years scarves were the thing that kept needles happy but now home accessories are making an appearance and looking at shop prices it is definitely cheaper to do them yourself!
This is a pattern for three cushions and a bowl, the bowl is a bit of a mystery but I am guessing that rather than dust it you wash it. Not much good for cornflakes though.
The cushions themselves are not difficult although the hardest one is the diamond pattern which comes as a surprise to me....
Knitted in Wendy Serenity Super Chunky a lovely soft angora rich yarn that knits up on big needles so these shouldn't take long to make and the colour range is broad enough to choose your own shades. You could also use Sirdar Denim Ultra or Hayfield Super Chunky as alternatives.
