Description
The Arrochar Check Cushion carries a woven tartan in soft moss green against a cream ground, worked as a genuine yarn-dyed check rather than a print. The colour runs through the cloth, so the pattern reads the same on both faces of the double-sided cover. It is made from a cotton and linen blend, 97% cotton with 3% linen, which gives it the substance of a cotton weave with a faint slub from the linen. The cover measures 50 x 50cm, a generous square that holds its shape well on a sofa or a bench.
This is an outdoor cushion, finished with a water-resistant coating so it copes with a conservatory, a garden terrace or a covered porch as readily as an indoor seat. It suits a relaxed, country-leaning scheme and sits happily against plain linen upholstery, rattan seating or painted garden furniture. The green-and-cream check is easy to mix, pairing with warm neutrals and natural wood without competing for attention, which makes it a sensible choice where you want pattern that softens rather than dominates.
The cover is woven throughout and edged with a self-fringed trim, where the cloth is frayed back at the border to form a soft tasselled edge in the same yarn as the body. A zip closure runs along one side, so the cover comes off for cleaning and the pad stays separate. Being a woven check, the cushion wears in gently and the fringe keeps its texture with occasional combing through of the strands. Cotton is a hard-wearing, breathable fibre, and the small proportion of linen adds a little crispness to the hand. It works as a single accent or grouped in a set of the same check.
