🧶 About the Design

The heart motif is created using the opening rounds of a traditional granny square, allowing the heart to become part of the structure from the very beginning — not added on afterwards.

Once complete, a granny square is layered behind the heart to create depth and balance, before the squares are joined together to form the finished cushion.

The heart motif can be made using any weight yarn:

• When made in Aran / Worsted weight yarn, the finished heart measures approximately 3.5 inches

• Changing yarn weight and hook size allows you to scale the design for different projects

🛋️ Finished Project

• 16 layered granny squares are used to create one cushion

• Perfect for adding a handmade, cosy touch to your home
