Granny Circle Cushion Pattern

Hey!

Today’s crochet pattern is a bright, beautiful granny circle cushion. This is perfect to spruce up any room and is the perfect size at about 16-16.5 inches – not too big, not too small, and if you wanted to change the size to suit you, that’s easy too – just stop crocheting when you have your perfect circle and then move straight on to the last row.

I fell in love with these rainbow colors instantly, and now it has a place in my daughter’s room – well, sort of… when she is not dive bombing on it! But still the thought was there. So where will you put yours?
