Latch Hook Cushion Kits FAQs
It is a slow, satisfying make rather than a race. Most people finish in around 8 to 12 hours, spread across a few relaxed sittings, and it is easy to pick up and put down between rows.
Each kit makes one 35 x 35 cm After Thoughts cushion cover, sized to fit our cushion inserts.
A latch hook cushion kit is a DIY craft kit that lets you make a soft, textured cushion cover from scratch. You use a small latch hook tool to loop short pieces of pre-cut yarn onto a printed canvas, following the design. It is simple, repetitive and relaxing, and the pattern builds up row by row until your cover is finished. Some people call them latch hook pillow kits, it is the same lovely make.
Yes. Every kit is beginner friendly and needs no prior experience. If you can tie a simple knot, you can latch hook. Each kit comes with clear step-by-step instructions, and there is a How To Latch Hook guide on our site if you would like a walkthrough before you start.
Everything you need to make the cover is in the box: pre-cut yarn in the right colours, a printed canvas that shows the design, a latch hook tool, and step-by-step instructions. Once your cover is finished, add an After Thoughts cushion insert (sold separately) to display it as a cushion.
No. The kit is complete, with the yarn, printed canvas and latch hook tool all included, so there is nothing extra to buy to make your cover. The only optional add-on is a cushion insert, if you would like to display the finished cover as a cushion.
Absolutely. Most people finish theirs as a cushion cover with an insert, but the panels also look great as wall hangings or textured wall art. It is your make, so display it however suits your space.
None, they are the same thing. We call ours latch hook cushion kits here in Australia, and you might know them as latch hook pillow kits elsewhere. Either way you finish with a plush, handmade cover.
