Strawberry Danish Pincushion....

 I joined in on another CAL this week

The original pattern is for a lovely puffy double sided hexagon, the pattern gives you the option of joining them together to make a chair cushion or many other items.

 I worked as per the pattern, which is very well written and easy to follow.
I stuffed firmly as I closed the hexagon.

You can see in the photos the centre is a single layer, this is such a clever pattern!
Using the same thread as the centre

I stitched through the centre of the sides several times, and pulled tight.
making a little ‘star flower’ shaped Strawberry Danish Pincushion.

Next time I will use a smaller hook, as the stitches opened a little when stuffed.

(hook size was my choice not the designers so this was user error ;) lol!)
the yarn is DK weight and the hook was 4.5mm - 3.5 would have been much better for me to choose for this yarn, but I sill love the results :)

 

You can find the pattern by Ravliki (Elena Fedotova)

on Ravelry Here

and there is a CAL on the Ravliki group on Ravelry Here 

It is such a clever pattern and heaps of fun to make :)

 

I hope you are having a great week,

our little home is enjoying school holidays,

birthdays, little day trips and visitors

oh and some birthdays - life is lovely!
