Woolly Loop Pillow Cover Using Berroco Ultra Alpaca Chunky
The Design
This loopy pillow cover demands your attention. And touch. And a big warm hug. It’s irresistible! Adapted from our Woolly Wreath & Garland pattern, this playfully dramatic statement piece will never fail to draw the eye (and the fingers). Rest it like a poofy, woolly cloud on your bed, on the sofa, on a chair, on the floor—anywhere you’d like a bit of fluffy coziness.
We found Berroco Ultra Alpaca Chunky to be the perfect mix of soft and quick in our search for cuddly, huggable yarns. It blends the softness of alpaca with the springy reliability of Peruvian Highland wool at a nice, chunky gauge. And its saturated, heathered colors provide a great range of choices for any home.
