stitch cushions

The Cabled Throw having found a new home, we were much in need of something to hide our very well-worn couch. So we now have two Stitch Cushions, knit using the pattern in Erika Knight's Classic at Home, one in the rib version...

and one in the cable version,

and finished with handmade ceramic buttons from Mrs Moon.

Mrs Moon, my favorite knitting shop, is run by two lovely sisters (Susan and Karen), stocks the most gorgeous yarns (like Blue Sky Alpacas and MillaMia), and is just down the road from Petersham. Bliss! Now if only they sold couches...

    I need to find the perfect button for my Mr Greenjeans cardi...a perfect excuse to fly to London!

    For someone who dreads projects which require finishing, you're awfully good at it. Such gorgeous pillows!
