The Better Waves Ahead throw pillow is hooked in wool. The loops are pulled through the backing one at a time, so the face carries a raised pile you can feel.
A textured accent for a room that has gone too smooth. Repeat one of its colors somewhere else in the room and the whole arrangement locks together.
Better Waves Ahead is hooked in navy capitals over a ground of diagonal stripes in pale blue, aqua and cream. The stripes run behind the letters at an angle, which stops the three lines of type from sitting flat. Beach house sentiment without a single shell in sight.

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. Makes a good gift for a housewarming, a decorator friend, or a first apartment.
