Did I need a decorative knot throw pillow? No. Have I always really wanted one? Yes. These are so cute, they look really good paired with other decorative throw pillows. I was able to snag the medium sized knot on sale, and the value for the price point is really good IMO. The material and construction feel soft, well made, and good looking. It was well shipped in a box and expanded to its full size quickly, just had to wait ale it out of the box and give the filling some time.
