Bee in a Wreath: a hooked wool throw pillow, a wreath and a bee front and center. The loops catch the light differently from every angle, which is what gives hooked work its depth from across a room.
The pillow that comes out of the attic box every year. One hooked piece among smoother covers gives a sofa physical variety no pattern can fake.
A gold and black bee sits above a pale blue bow on a cream hooked wool ground, flanked by green sprigs carrying small gold berries. A tonal cream wreath is hooked faintly behind it. The closer relative of the check ground bee, but softer in color.

Details: Hooked wool face
Care: Spot clean only, blotting with a soft cloth, mild soap and cool water. Do not machine wash, tumble dry or dry clean.
The hooked face is built loop by loop in wool, so the color shifts slightly as the light moves across it. Wool takes years of handling and comes back looking like itself, which is why these get passed down rather than replaced. A thoughtful gift for the family that unpacks the same decorations every December.
