Mariposa Butterfly Cushion - Crochet Pattern
Hello and welcome to the Mariposa Butterfly Cushion! If you're as passionate about crochet as I am and love bringing a touch of nature's beauty into your home (read ‘I need to spend more time outdoors’), this pattern is perfect for you. Inspired by unique beauty of butterflies, the Mariposa Butterfly Cushion is designed to add a splash of colour to any space.
This pattern can be crocheted using a variety of colourwork techniques - intarsia, tapestry, or stranded colourwork, to create a unique butterfly motif that reflects your personal style. Measuring approximately 15 inches, the finished cushion is the ideal size to cosy up with on your sofa, bed, or favourite chair.
Join me in celebrating the launch of this beautiful pattern and start creating a piece of art that will impress everyone who sees it. Ready to bring the elegance of butterflies into your home?

The Mariposa Butterfly Cushion is the sister pattern of the Mariposa Butterfly Blanket that I designed in the early days of Elimee Designs. The first was given as a new baby gift to a university friend, and the second was for my own third wee miss.
