Square Dance Cushion
Inspired by vintage patchwork but with a modern twist. Modular squares create diagonal pathways across the cushion. Pairing a long-repeat self-striping yarn with solid shades lets colours wander and flow—just a little random. Generously sized for cosy lounging, the palette nods to early spring light.
This fun modular knitted cushion is worked from a series of colourful squares, joined together as you go with minimal sewing to create a striking patchwork effect. The cushion back is worked in two pieces, picked up and knitted from each end in and worked in easy stocking stitch with simple garter-stitch stripes and a button band.
