As far as comfort is concerned, there is no doubt that this chair can give it. However, it does have a lot of room as far as design is concerned but then again it seems that this is the entire point of attracting attention and stopping people on their tracks.

Regardless though, the Stitch and Wooly were designed to offer seating and somehow slow down folks in a tempting manner or simply put – to take a breather. The chairs were designed by Susanne Westphal and were purposely unfinished for the said reason of slowing down or stopping people on their tracks.

It seems that the more time you give to stitch and wool them is equivalent to offering better comfort and coziness.
