Step 1With yarn held double, CO 45 stitches. Work in pea soup stitch until cushion cover measures 100cm, then bind off loosely. Fold up the the bottom leaving 12cm at the top as shown below (i.e. fold up the bottom 44cm).
Pin in place and sew up the sides using mattress stitch.
Fold the top 12cm over and sew in place down the sides.
-
Step 2You might want to sew a couple of buttons on as shown below, I crocheted two button loops for them by working 10 chain stitches from the "bind off" edge with a 5mm crochet hook (yarn held singly).
Weave in loose ends.
