The Botanical Pillow is a next-level, oversized floor pillow, perfect for making a statement in your living space or as a seat for relaxing.

Both sides are worked from the center out using a mix of yarns creating a hexagonal shape. This pattern is perfect for all levels of knitters as the lace is geared towards a beginner level yet the different stitch patterns keep you entertained.
