Dorothy Cushion

Following step by step the weaving process of our favourite 'Dorothy' Cushion.
We first dye the yarns in various colours for the ponpons.
Then the ponpons are made by hand, one by one before you start weaving them
through the warp. You need hundreds of them and a great deal of patience.
You will be able to buy them from our e-boutique, available again from 20th May.
