This pattern uses various slip stitch knitting combinations to create a stunning colourful cushion which is very easy to make. The name is inspired by the beautiful yarn shades I used.

The cushion measures approximately 35cm (14in) square.

Each stitch pattern has a different tension and the pattern is written with increases and decreases between each section to keep the overall width the same.

The cushion uses different combinations of the three colours on the two sides of the cushion.
The two sides are worked separately and joined at the cast-off edges with a three-needle cast off. The other two edges are then sewn together using mattress stitch and the zip inserted at the cast-on edges.
