“We’ve shown before that you can create some gorgeous colour patterns using slip stitches, but designer Jo has gone one step further and incorporated textured bobbles into this fabulous cushion. The bobbles are worked by increasing and decreasing on different rows, while slipping stitches means you can use two colours to make them really stand out.”
