Lake Stripe, hooked in wool, made up as a throw pillow, stripes front and center. The loops catch the light differently from every angle, which is what gives hooked work its depth from across a room.
Drop it on a window seat or a wicker chair on the porch. Set it against smooth linen or velvet and the texture contrast does the styling work for you.
Four vertical color blocks run the width of the face, blue, gold, green and red, with LAKE spelled in white capitals so each letter lands on its own block. On this pillow the stripe does as much work as the word.

Hooking is slow work and it shows, in dense wool loops that stand up off the surface and hide the wear flat fabrics show. Wool is why pieces like this last: it resists crushing, holds its dye, and looks better used than new. A wonderful gift for anyone whose best memories happen on the water.
