This is a rectangular cushion (pillow) for home decor.

The chart can be knit in any thickness of yarn and needle size, but remember yarn requirements will change accordingly.

I’ve included a couple of alternative backing suggestions.

Finished cushion size 30 cm x 50 cm approx.

Uses intarsia and surface crochet.

1 skein each of colours Saltire (blue), Snowdrop (white) and Navy were used, with lots left over.

Divide the skeins into 2 or 3 balls before starting.
