It's my own design, which I made up as I went along, and the wool in grey is Colinette 'Art' yarn and the red is Manos del Uruguay 'Maxima' yarn; both arran weight yarns, and I used a 4.5 size hook for a dense fabric. It has a lovely heavy and substantial feel to it.
Laid up with lower back pain (grrrrh!) so busied my fingers with a bit of autumnal crochet, and made a cushion for Ty Cariad. I like to work on things to take there for my guests to enjoy. I think I prefer the back of this one!

Thanks for you kind words about our beloved cottage Jan! Yes I'm the owner, but I don't think I know your friend Jo. I've just made some more goodies to take there next time I go that way; alas not until the end of March! I'm so glad you enjoyed your time there, and thanks again for leaving a comment on our facebook page. It really means a lot to have the words of our visitors to recommend us! Your comment will be posted after it is approved.
