Laura of Bugs and Fishes by Lupin shares a tutorial for making a lovely felt argyle cushion.
To make this cushion, I used two old wool jumpers (sweaters) which I’d shrunk in the machine to make chunky, textured felt. I’ve had a stash of brown jumpers waiting for the right project so I was thrilled to be able to put them to good use… but you don’t have to use recycled felt for this project. Any kind of felt will do for making the diamond pattern, and to make the cushion itself you could use felt sold by the metre or a co-ordinating fabric.
