Adorable 1970s granny square crochet cushion in bright, warm colors. Height 38 cm / Width 48 cm. The cushion has two distinct sides, both edged with a crochet border. • Side A (Floral/Paisley Pattern): • The central fabric is predominantly reddish-orange. • It features an intricate paisley or floral pattern, primarily in shades of olive green, mustard yellow, and touches of blue-gray. • Side B (Granny Squares): • This side is entirely covered with a crocheted panel made up of several assembled squares, commonly known as "Granny Squares." • The squares feature alternating bright, warm colors: bright yellow/mustard, pumpkin orange/burnt, and dark brown borders. • The pattern is arranged in a regular checkerboard pattern. Both sides are framed by a wide, wavy crocheted border, giving the cushion a very handcrafted look. It features a slightly wavy or scalloped finish, adding volume and character. The granny square enjoyed a huge resurgence in popularity in the 1970s, often used for throws, vests, and cushions, with bright and contrasting color combinations. The combination of mustard yellow, burnt orange, and dark brown is emblematic of the "earthy" color palette that was so fashionable during the 1970s.
