Shaped Carrot, hooked in wool, made up as a throw pillow. The loops are pulled through the backing one at a time, so the face carries a raised pile you can feel.
Sits well on a sofa, a bed, or a reading chair. One hooked piece among smoother covers gives a sofa physical variety no pattern can fake.
Orange carrot shaped pillow with pale stitch marks across the root and a green leafy top, twenty two inches from tip to tip. The orange deepens toward the point. It goes out at Easter and reads fine through the rest of spring.

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. 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. A thoughtful gift for spring hosts and Easter table setters.
