I had a good time with this cushion. It’s made from Jojoland Rhythm and Baritone, both wool and great to work with. Rhythm comes in fabulous colors, and the Baritone has great solids to coordinate. The calligraphic character means “long life”. It would make a good wedding gift, or even a new baby gift!

The edging is i-cord. You will need a 14” square pillow form and will need to know how to work basic color changing. It’s not a difficult pattern, but since there is colorwork, it’s not for the true beginner knitter. I am available for knitting help via e-mail.
