Sunny Citrus Cushion by Emily Littlefair for Marie Segares/Underground Crafter

The Sunny Citrus Pillow is a crochet pattern by Emily Littlefair from Round and Round the Crochet Hook: Patterns To Inspire and Admire excerpted with permission from Tuva Publishing.

Note from the designer: “When I was making the motifs for this cushion, I was constantly reminded of citrus fruits. Yep, in the yellow tones I used, they looked like slices of lemons. I was aiming for the sun, but citrus fruit was close enough. This cushion will add the warmth of the sunny day to any room. As a thought… More of these motifs joined together would make a lovely blanket.”
