Description: This rolly polly pillow is designed to add color and fun to your favorite chair throughout the year. My granddaughter LOVES rainbows and the colors are so happy so that is how I chose the palette for this piece. I have added color suggestions in the materials list and at the end of this pattern as well.
Appliques can be snapped on each end and switched out when a change of color is needed. Other items could be made to match the holidays. Make this any length for the perfect fit, even a really long one for a body pillow.

Notes:
Ombre Yarns: I used sections of these yarns because they were the shades I wanted. You could do each of these sections in ombre yarns instead of 2 colors pre stripe.
Many of these yarns can be substituted with similar shades in other brands. These have become my favorites together and what I had on hand. Please see the end of this pattern for more color suggestions or email email heidi@snappy-tots.com.
