I knew I wanted a couple of poufs in my remodeled knitting room, so I was looking everywhere for a pattern so I could knit some. After not finding one, I gave up and ordered two here, which I received pretty quickly. And then I found a pattern. After adding up the cost of the extra heavy duty yarn and the liner and the stuffing materials, I determined that I would not have saved any money makiny my own, and the two that I received from Great Offer Stock are exactly what I wanted, look great, and are very comfortable ottomans. And my time is freed up for other knitting projects, not giant poufs.....
