๐ŸŒผSomething New is Blooming | Bringing a Pattern to Life! ๐ŸŒผ

๐ŸŒผ A New Project: Floral Cushion Cover with Yarnsmiths Cotton DK ๐ŸŒผ

There’s nothing more exciting than starting a new crochet adventure, especially when it involves working with such gorgeous colours and a beautiful design ✨.

This time, I’m taking inspiration from Astri’s lovely pattern and reimagining it into a cushion cover. I love that this project allows me to bring together both my creativity and Astri’s artistry and really bring this to life! It feels like a true collaboration, even across the stitches. ๐Ÿ’•

For this piece, I’ve chosen Yarnsmiths Cotton DK in the following shades:

๐Ÿ’— Fondant Pink
๐ŸŒธ Candyfloss Pink
๐Ÿ’š Olive Green
๐Ÿ’™ Denim Blue
๐Ÿ’› Lemon Yellow

The combination is cheerful, soft, and just perfect for a floral motif. My first sample has already come to life — a sweet flower blooming against a Denim Blue circle, ready to grow into something even more special.

I’ll be sharing the progress as I go, so stay tuned if you’d like to follow along with this journey from motif to full cushion. I can’t wait to see how it all comes together — stitch by stitch, petal by petal ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ’™๐ŸŒผ

Happy Crocheting!
