    Had to add rows to the pattern as the shape was too squat and recreate the chart, but once this was done then the knitting went well. Had never made my own chart so was very pleased.

      I've just downloaded this pattern so it's great to see how nice yours have turned out, I want mine to be smaller than the pattern so giving it a go in aran weight, the tip about adding the extra rows will be useful.

        @Sue B: Thank you! Can I ask where you purchased the Wendy yarn from or if you know where I could find it? This website doesn't have it right now.

        @Vanessa G: what a shame, I used loveknitting to buy it as it comes to the house so quickly. Perhaps if you email them they can suggest a suitable replacement yarn. All the best Sue

      Yes Sue, Can you please give more details about the rows and what you did do with the chart??
      This will be a project for me because my 24 yr old daughter wants a VW Van just like those and in the meantime I would love to make the pillows for her. And because I have not done a project before using a chart. So it will definitely be fun!!
      Thanks!! Dena-Lynn :)

      Really like the cushions. Please can you share the pattern . My son is VW mad and I might just be able to make a pair for him for Christmas.
