PDF Pattern: Turbulent Seas Ottoman

$5.95

A large and puffy ottoman that is super simple to make.

Turbulent Seas is a fun project using a large hook and worsted weight yarn with four strands held together. Pattern instructions are for a two color ottoman, but you can easily customize this pouf to be any color combination you wish, or simply use one color, the choice is yours.

My inspiration for this design is the Atlantic Ocean. A couple of years ago during Christmastime, my husband and I (along with our youngest) took a trip to visit our middle child several states away. He lived near the beach along the Atlantic coast of Florida at the time. This was my first real experience seeing the ocean and being able to put my feet in the water. The colors I chose for this ottoman are very close to the colors of the water.
