A new cushion.....

My very first Crochet Cushion

I'm quite chuffed with it

and look forward to making some more soon.

I used 5 x 100gm balls of Lincraft Baw Baw Yarn

It is 50% Wool & 50% Acrylic and is a lovely chunky yarn.

And this Gorgeous 15mm Chunky Crochet hook.

I crocheted a tradional Granny Square of 9 rounds

and finished with a round of double crochet (uk/australian)

Of course this pattern could be adapted to any yarn and size you require.

I then Stitched the cushion cover up like an envelope,

stitching under the Single Crochet round using invisable ladder stitch, so the stitches could not be seen as per my photo below.

After the bottom half of the cushion cover was sewn together,
I covered my cushion insert (I actually used 2 cloth serviettes that have never been used, they were the perfect size and I really liked this colour for my cushion)
Next was placing the insert inside the cushion cover and stitching the last two seams.
When the time comes for a new cushion insert (as we all know they flatten over time)
I will be able to undo the two of the seams and replace the insert
This cushion was Very quick to make because of the large yarn and hook and super easy, if you can make a granny square than you can easily make one of these cushions :)

Thank you for visiting

I hope you have a lovely day :)
