About this pattern

Cosy knitted cushions in traditional Scandinavian style, in red and white. Knitting with two strands on large needles makes the fabric thick and chunky, and the cushion is quick to finish. I usually back my knitted cushions with hessian and make an overlapping back without a zip or buttons – the pattern shows you how.

Designed by Anette Eriksson

I believe making something with your hands changes the way you feel. In a world that constantly asks us to go faster, slow craft gives us permission to pause, create and enjoy the process. Through timeless Scandinavian design, beautiful fibres and thoughtful patterns, I hope to help others discover the calm and joy that making can bring.
