Bobble Stitch Cushion

Pattern written in UK terms

• ch = chain
• dc = double crochet
• yoh = yarn over hook

To Make the Bobble Stitch:

1. Yoh, hook into stitch, yoh, draw yarn through stitch.
2. Yoh, draw yarn through first 2 loops (2 loops on hook).
3. Repeat (3 loops on hook).
4. Repeat (4 loops on hook).
5. Repeat (5 loops on hook).
6. Repeat (6 loops on hook).
7. Yoh, draw yarn through all loops.

You Need:

• Hook and yarn (whatever you fancy here. I used 4 x balls of Lion Brand Wool-Ease Thick and Quick in Glacier (shade 105) and a 12 mm hook).
• Cushion
• Buttons (I used 4 x 2.5cm)

Pattern

Both sides of the cushion are crocheted in rows. At the beginning of each row, turn your work and ch 1.

Front of Cushion (Make 1)

• Foundation chain: ch 31
• Row 1: dc in each st across row (31 sts)
• Row 2: dc 3, *bobble in next st, dc 3* repeat from * to * across row
• Rows 3-5: dc in each st across row (31 sts)
• Row 6: dc 5, *bobble in next st, dc 3* repeat from * to * across row, until you have 5 sts left, then dc 5.
• Rows 7-9: repeat row 1
• Rows 10-37: repeat the pattern: row 2, then 3 rows of dc, then row 6, followed by 3 rows of dc

Back of Cushion (Make 1)

• Foundation chain: ch 31
• Rows 1-37: dc in each st across row (31 sts)

To Make Up:

Align the front and back pieces with wrong sides together with the bobble side facing you, right-way-up. Beginning at the top left corner and working in a clockwise direction, dc three of the sides together. You will need to put 3 dcs in the corner stitches. Stitch a few buttons along the top of the cushion, on the wrong side of the bobble edge. Use the spaces between the stitches on the back piece as button holes.

Adjusting the Pattern:

To adjust this pattern to fit any cushion, you need to alter the width and height of the front and back panels. To adjust the width, make sure your foundation chain is a multiple of 4 and add 3 more. To change the height, simply add or subtract the total number of rows.

Simples.

Finishing Tips

• Weave in ends securely with a yarn needle to prevent them from working loose with chunky yarn.
• When joining the panels, line up the bobbles so the pattern sits evenly around the cushion.
• If using buttons, test placement on the back panel before sewing to ensure the buttonholes line up with the back stitches.
• Lightly block or steam pieces if necessary to even out rows before assembly, but take care with synthetic blends and chunky yarns.
