MOSS STITCH CUSHION PATTERN, Throw, cowl and more

This is an old pattern but I can not recommend Moss Stitch enough for cushion covers. Its a firm and none stretch stitch that will give you a cushion cover that lasts years with out stretching out of shape.
Very decorative and can look so different, with just the colour combination you can achieve stripes spots or a tweed look.

Moss stitch blanket in a tweed finish, the same combination as the cushion, again its the same stitch just a different colour combination



Colour combinations give different looks but the stitch does change 
Same Moss Stitch different colour combo using space dyed yarn and a plain yarn gives something similar to a Fair Isle look


same Moss stitch below gives a striped look
 same stitch just different combination of colour combination gives you a spot


is a link to several projects using
 MOSS STITCH and showing you all the variations.

DAY WITH JAMES AND 5 HOURS OF HIS FAVOURITE TV PROGRAMME

Can't believe we sat and chatted and watched his fav TV programme on his laptop yesterday so not a lot of crochet done at all but a fabulous day could have no or very little contact with him for about 4 months very soon...sad and miserable l'll be!!


COWL TO CUSHION AND BACK TO COWL AGAIN?
Really hated it as a cowl when it had a purple ripple in it removed the purple and looked at it as a cushion added the lime greens and now l like it as a cowl again...so not sure what it will be when its finished hehe....
CUSHION OR COWL?...........mmmmmmmmmmmmm
