Cath Kidston Crochet cushion

One of my christmas presents this year was this crochet set from Cath Kidston. Now I dont normally buy ready prepared kits for crafting however my darling partner must have seen me admiring the tin it came in online! (and yes it does look very nice sitting on my book shelves in the lounge)

It didnt take long to finish BUT
if you do have this kit, be very careful with the red wool! I only just had enough left to finish (as in just enough left to weave in the last end!) so just bare that in mind when you're changing colours each time! eeek.

Its not the best wool in the world and to be honest I would have expected better quality from Cath Kidtson BUT
I've really got it for the tin rather than the cushion... although I do like the cushion, it will be going in my sons room when I get around the actually clearing everything out of there, at the moment it looks like a store cupboard.. oh well
