Snuggle up with this gorgeous home felted cushion. Our plump cushion is made with Wash+Filz-It! Tweedcolor – a brilliant yarn that is designed for felting in your washing machine.

All you need to do is knit the simple squares and let your washing machine work its felting magic, shrinking and transforming your knitting to create a robust and cosy fabric that makes amazing cushions.

As you can see from the picture, Tweedcolor has a homely and subtle flecked effect. There are ten colours in the range, and our cushion is made in Petrol blue.

If you’d like a bolder pattern on your cushion, you could look out for new Wash+Filz-It! Spotcolor. It’s new for spring summer 2011, and features a striking mix of dots and splashes in the yarn.
