My design ideas and advice: This is the ultimate easy pattern. If you wanted to learn to knit or are looking to come back into knitting this is the perfect kickstarter – or gentlestarter!! And for the experienced knitter these are great for a quick knit to add colour to your home. I re-decorated my living room a while ago and realised that, while my sofa still worked with the colour scheme it needed new cushions to really add zing. I knitted my Cove Cushion in an evening and had a few new cushions by the end of the week!
