~This was designed out of my love of chunky/bulky/ and super bulky yarn. I wanted to create something that had the comfort of a pillow while also being stylish enough to wear with any outfit.

~Double check to ensure the gauge is right because the Medium size uses up almost all of the 90 yds, leaving little room for error/change.
