Iona Rectangular Cushion
The Good Shepherd

Process
With corded yarns sourced from Shetland, The Good Shepherd set out to explore a multi-coloured stripe. After hand-weaving the pattern – using natural shades of wool – the fabric is then felted, steamed, cut, and finally hand stitched into cushions. Each piece of fabric is scaled specifically for each cushion.
The Good Shepherd is a knitwear company founded in 2013 by RCA graduate Emily Watts. Specialising in hand knitted textiles, the brand creates intricately knitted cushions and throws imbued with a strong sense of British identity, rooted to culture, process and place. The Good Shepherd draws inspiration from the exposed, windswept landscape of the Shetland Islands, following a research trip to Shetland’s northernmost isles where much of Emily’s yarn is sourced.
