Christmas Poinsettia, hooked in wool, made up as a throw pillow. The loops catch the light differently from every angle, which is what gives hooked work its depth from across a room.
Sits well on a sofa, a bed, or a reading chair. Repeat one of its colors somewhere else in the room and the whole arrangement locks together.
One large red poinsettia opens across a cream ground, its petals in two reds around a green and gold center, with leaves and small buds trailing off to both sides. Straightforward and easy to work into an existing holiday mix.

Wool pulled loop by loop through a backing, the way hooked rugs have been made for two centuries, is what gives this piece its depth and its weight in the hand. Christmas designs are produced in limited runs each year, and wool is one of the few materials that outlasts the season it was bought for. Makes a good gift for a Christmas host, a newlywed couple, or a family collection that grows every year.
