Notes

Cushion made to compliment Ikea cushion shown in photo. That’s Mewsley on the chair…

Fabulous stashbuster :) Used ancient black mohair for dividing lines, made it hard to see what I was doing but fuzz disguised any blunders.

Decided to do the back using the diagonal method and 4 rows at a time of the 10 different colour combos repeating across it.

Now I’m torn - I think I like the back more than the front!!

11 Oct 2021 - After 11 years of constant use, several washings and summer-long baking in full sun in the conservatory - this cushion has gone to the sofa in the sky - worn out and well loved!
