candy cane crochet cushion

Candy cane crochet cushion.

I've been working on a diagonal stripes variant of the chevron pillow pattern with pastel pink, neon pink and neon orange yarn from Marrakech.

I started the candy cane project in June and because of a crochet-free holiday and busy weeks afterwards, it has taken more than a month to finish it, but it is ready now.

The bright colors and stripes make it a summer cushion!

You can look anywhere and find inspiration. (Frank Gehry)

...and sometimes the inspiration for the backside of a handmade harlequin pillow comes from a parking.



At the moment I was preparing this post, the harlequin/striped pillow was still for sale in my Etsy shop. In the meantime it's sold! (wanted to share my inspiration for the slashes anyway...)
