An unusual stitch combined with tiny beads makes a wonderful textured pattern on this large, sumptuous cushion. The tuck stitch is made by slipping stitches on previous rows, forming long ‘floats’ of yarn which are then gathered together on a later row. Choose a smooth yarn for good stitch definition.

You will need 250gr of Aran weight yarn, 5mm needles, 6 buttons, 46cm cushion pad and a pack of small beads (optional).
