Jack Strawberry: a hooked wool throw pillow. The wool is pulled through a backing until the design stands up off the surface in dense loops.
Adds texture and pattern to a plain sofa. One hooked piece among smoother covers gives a sofa physical variety no pattern can fake.
Two pink strawberries carved with jack-o-lantern faces, green leaves trailing above them, all on a purple ground. Odd and funny, and the palette of pink, green and purple stays far from the usual orange and black. For the person who thinks Halloween decorating should be funny, not frightening.

Care: Spot clean only, blotting with a soft cloth, mild soap and cool water. Do not machine wash, tumble dry or dry clean.
Each piece is hooked on a frame one loop at a time, which is why hooked wool has a depth a printed face cannot copy. These are made in limited seasonal quantities. The wool is why this one goes back into the box every January instead of into the bin. Makes a good gift for Halloween hosts and anyone who decorates for October.
