This is a lovely large kilim inspired floor cushion. It has a large motif worked in intarsia on the front and a woven fabric back, in a contrast colour, fastened with buttons and twisted yarn loops. (The front is knitted then hand sewn to the cushion case afterwards).

This pattern combines both written and charted instructions as well as a photo tutorial with tips on making the fabric back & button loops. The tutorial is also my website here
