My eldest cat Fluffy is 17 years old and spends more and more of her time sleeping.She loves to curl up in the cat baskets and I thought I should increase her comfort by making her a lovely cushion. I decided to make her a pure silk cushion and called it Luxury Fish Supper because it reminds me of what she leaves whenever I poach a fish for her tea. She meticulously eats all the lovely fish flesh but always leaves the head and tail so that the remains end up looking like something from a Tom & Jerry cartoon!
The Luxury Fish Supper Cushion measures 60 cm long by 30 cm wide so will fit into most cat baskets. I particularly like putting it in the small basket so that the tail hangs over the side.

I have used Debbie Bliss Pure Silk as I love the luxurious sheen and have added some Anchor Metallic Artiste to the head and tail to give extra fishy sparkle.I have designed the cushion with an opening at the back so that the cushion can be washed and dried flat and the stuffing can be removed and replaced or washed.
The pattern involves intarsia work (thats picture knitting) but do not be afraid because I have designed a special chart which clearly shows every stitch by colour and also shows all increases and decreases. To help get you started the pattern includes general notes and tips about intarsia techniques and as well as the chart I have also given idiot proof row by row instructions for the first part of the chart. Even if you have never tried intarsia work before the pattern provides fully detailed instructions to make you an expert.
Ever since I finished it Fluffy has slept on it every day and has had many fishy sweet dreams on it.

Don’t worry if you haven’t got a cat it even looks good on the sofa so you can knit one for yourself.

SUPERFAST HORIZONTAL STRIPES CUSHION COVER SET KNITTING PATTERN
My sofa cushions needed a makeover but I did not want to spend hours and hours knitting new ones so I put my Superfast method to good use. By knitting with super chunky wool (or 3 balls of dk together) on 8 mm needles it becomes four times faster than ordinary knitting. I made these two sets in absolutely no time at all. A friend of mine recently spent weeks knitting just one large size cushion in dk and said “Never again” due to the amount of work so I can’t possibly tell her that I made this lot in a day!
This is my Superfast Horizontal Stripes Cushion Cover Set knitting pattern. The pattern provides full details to make cushion covers in 3 sizes i.e. 50 x 50 cm, 35 x 35 cm and 25 x 25 cm. So get Superfast knitting and make a set this weekend.
