Lumber Support
After creating my Logging Off pillow design for my son, my husband mentioned it would be fun to have a companion bolster pillow resembling a longer limb of a tree. My son asked my husband why he wanted a pillow other than the circular slice pillow I had already created, and my husband responded that this shape could be a good back pillow for lumbar support. Almost immediately, my son said, "Lumbar support? MOM! You should make a long log pillow and call it LUMBER SUPPORT! Isn't that a great idea??" I broke out into a smile and nodded vigorously in agreement and got to work on the design right away!
The length of this pillow is easily adjustable to meet your needs. The size shown fits conveniently nestled into a standard camping chair. It is possible to get a larger or smaller diameter finished pillow by adjusting needle size and yarn. While I can't confirm back support benefits to this particular pillow design, I CAN confirm that a LUMBER SUPPORT pillow will make you smile and provide a great conversation piece in your home or cabin decor.
