The patterns for both cushions are in The Art of Knitting Magazine Issue: 24

5 x 50g balls of silk aran yarn,
and 4 x 25g of mohair yarn.

Additional items:
3 x 28mm buttons. 41cm square cushion pad.

Quick to knit in a wide-rib patten with an envelope-style button flap - worked separately after the cover is finished so that the rib lies in a different direction to the main part and the other worked as integral to the cover.

Straight pieces of fabric with no shaping involved so ideal for beginners.
