This super soft faux fur pillow is easy to make and easy to snuggle! The front is knit in Fable Fur and the back with superwash wool. The back is worked in two pieces and has a button band in the middle. This decorative feature is also functional and makes it easy to insert and remove the pillow form for washing. The pillow is mostly worked in stockinette stitch, with ribbing and buttonholes on the back. The bulky yarn knits up quickly to make a fun addition to any décor in no time.
