Rainbow Boho Hexagon Throw Cushion - designed by Joanita Theron

A fun and colorful cushion designed with easy hexagons.

A Scraps of Yarn Project:
The perfect project to do to use up all your bits and pieces from your leftover yarn.
This is completely optional, and it can be worked in coordinated colors.

Difficulty Level | Skills Required
- Easy
Basic stitches in simple variations, simple repeats, color changes, shaping and finishing.
You will need to know basic stitches like SC (single crochet) and DC (double crochet).
Special stitches explained and provided in the instructions – if required.

Materials
✔ Hook – 3, 50 mm (E)
✔ Scissors
✔ Cushion Inner or Stuffing – check sizing.
✔ Yarn needle

Yarn:
Vinnis Colours – DK Nikkim 100% cotton 1 x ball = 50g / 130 yards / 119 meters
Weight – DK (11 wpi) 3: Light.
Approx 625 grams / 1487 meters / 1625 yards (12 ½ balls)
Approx. A – Sunshine = 1 ½ balls / S – Natural = 2 ½ balls.
All other colors approx. ½ ball for each.

Yarn Substitute:
Using the same type of yarn throughout the project is recommended. The pattern suggests Cotton DK yarn, but you are not limited to this type of yarn. Any yarn can be used if you take into consideration your sizing for the project will differ.

Tension | Gauge
Gauge is NOT necessary for this project to be perfect – using the same yarn and hook will ensure hexagons to remain same size. Blocking can help with adjusting sizing of hexagons.
COUNTING your stitches will ensure a true success of this project!

Size
Rectangle - Approx. Length = 20 inch / 52 cm Width = 10 inches / 25 cm.
Square – Approx. Length and width = 14 inch / 36 cm.
Remember – if you use/choose a different yarn weight/hook size your cushion will be a different size!
Helpful Tips | Hints
✔ It is recommended to weave in ends as you go.
✔ Because several pieces need to be joined, it is important to count the stitches to ensure success.
✔ If you have trouble with tension, please when advised use a larger hook.
✔ Most importantly, have fun and enjoy the process.
