Rowan Torfinn Cushion, designed by Arne & Carlos, is built on a
groundwork of Norwegian folk art and the love of color! The knitting pattern
uses Softyak DK and consists of one floral and one geometric design, which can
be used with a plain cushion back or paired for a breathtaking result. Rowan
Softyak DK is a blend of yak, cotton, and nylon that has the best of all
worlds: the softness of cashmere combined with durability and washability. The
intarsia and Fair Isle patterns are in chart form only.
