This cushion was originally designed for the Stylecraft Blogtour in October 2016 to promote the release of some new colours in the Stylecraft Special Aran yarn range.

The cushion features a striking tucked stitch pattern to show off some colourful stripes and add some interesting texture to the cushion.

I decided to combine knitting and sewing and made an envelope back using some coordinating vintage-look fabric. If you don’t want to do that, you could easily make a similar back by knitting instead.

It’s the perfect pattern for using up oddments of Aran weight yarn.

Please contact me on Ravelry if you have any queries or if you find a mistake in the pattern. Thanks!
