NOTES

Change colour on the final yrh of st before colour change is indicated and leave the strand on the WS read to use again on the next row. You will need to use 2 balls of Yarn A to avoid carrying the yarn across the centre design.

The Rainbow Square is worked in rows to form the rainbow design, then rounds are worked to form the square shape.

The Cushion is made of 2 panels: a Rainbow Front and a Granny Square Back. Panels are joined together at the end.
