This whimsical knit uses reversed, trimmed thrums to make fluffy white clouds in a blue, blue sky. These are not true thrums, which are meant to mat together on the inside of the piece to keep in the warmth. To keep your clouds looking fresh, use superwash or nylon tops that are less likely to felt. You can also spruce it up with a short trim.
