Pheasant tartan cushion

Knit a stylish cushion cover with a tartan effect to add a touch of cosy country charm to any room.

This simple step-by-step knitting pattern uses only horizontal colour changes so is perfect for beginners who haven’t mastered colourwork or intarsia knitting, the vertical stripes are worked after you have knitted the cushion cover and full instructions are given. It features a simple envelope back with a ribbed edging so it’s easy to insert and remove your cushion pad.

You’ll have plenty of yarn leftover to make at least one other cushion by swapping the main colour with one of the contrast colours.

Finished size: Approx. 35cm x 35cm when made into the cushion cover. Fits a 40cm x 40cm cushion pad. Instructions for making a larger size are included.

Pattern includes: Full written instructions and step-by-step photographs. Note: you will need to know how to cast on, use knit stitches and purl stitches.
