Posted by Zyle on March 5, 2010

Our sofa has been lacking cushions for over 3 years now, and I thought instead of buying some, I could take the Attic24 approach and crochet some bright covers!  I read Lucy’s tutorial a while ago about backing cushions with a jumper and as I rather unfortunately semi-felted an old pink cardigan in the wash recently, I decided to give it a go with that.

I didn’t follow the tutorial step by step – I could say I was trying to put my own spin on it, or be creative, but to be perfectly honest I was sitting there crafting on my bed in front of the TV watching old episodes of Ally McBeal, and I was just too happily settled to get up and go to the computer.  I reckoned I could figure a method out using my memory of Lucy’s method and logic – I think it came out ok!

Zara seems to approve – she wouldn’t stop rubbing her face up against it while I was trying to take photos!

I’m thinking a ripple cushion in the same colours would compliment it quite nicely… :)
