A hooked wool throw pillow: the Lake Bound design. The wool is pulled through a backing until the design stands up off the surface in dense loops.
Drop it on a window seat or a wicker chair on the porch. Repeat one of its colors somewhere else in the room and the whole arrangement locks together.
Pale blue ground, navy script spelling Lake Bound over two lines, with a few white wave lines above and below to fill the corners. Softer than the other lake pillows in the range, which mostly go in hard on navy blocks.

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 takes years of handling and comes back looking like itself, which is why these get passed down rather than replaced. A thoughtful gift for lake house hosts and summer people, and a good reason to keep one yourself.
