This pillow was developed for the December 2025 Oh Tannenbaum yarn advent from Little Loopy.

Overview
This pattern was inspired by my participation in the Charm City Yarn Crawl in Baltimore, MD. I chose to buy yarn at each of the local yarn shops and wanted to use all of it in one piece to celebrate them all.

The pillow is great for advents, but is very flexible. You could use it as a stash buster, use up some yarn scraps, add more colors, use fewer colors, etc. My version has 11 accent colors and 1 main color.

It is constructed by creating triangle motifs and joining them to make the front panel, creating the back panel in one piece, and then joining front and back together.
