Product Details

Skill Level - Easy

This is a knitting project for anyone who wants to knit up something stylish without having to concentrate too hard. It's a 14 row pattern and straightforward Knit and Purl stitches, with a bit of Moss Stitch to finish off.

We have videos for all these stitches on our How To videos page

The finished size: 43cm x 33cm - we can provide a cushion pad made with European Duck Feather.

Adapting the size: If you have a smaller cushion pad, you can of course adjust the pattern to fit. Let us know, and we will even include the revised number of stitches you will need to cast on for your own pad.

Kit includes: 

  • Cotton alpaca project bag
  • 200gm Gorgeous Aran made from 50% baby* alpaca /50% baby* merino
  • 5 x 5cm buttons
  • Optional - 5.5mm needles and tapestry needle
  • Pattern for cushion

The mix of baby alpaca and merino means it both super soft and easy to knit with. The colour of this yarn is parchment (a lovely off-white/ cream colour).

* "baby alpaca" means the fleece used has a very fine micron and is therefore especially soft, not that we stole the fleece from a baby cria!

Pleased with how quickly the item arrived. Wool looks and feels lovely but it has been put away for a Christmas present so not knitted up yet!

Hi Suzanne

Thank you for your lovely review. Was it a christmas present for yourself? Did you start knitting straight away on Xmas day if it was? I really hope you, or the person you gave it to, enjoys the knitting and the wearing. Do share a photo when completed.x
