Abstract: A pillow has a knit cover with a crimped siliconized polyester fill. The pillow is sewn into a spheroid shape, which can be adorned with any desired decoration, such as forming the pillow to resemble the head of a character. The outer cover is made of a polyester derived knit matrix in which the weft of the knit matrix has been scratched and raised to produce a nap averaging 2 mm in height. The outer cover is sliver knit on a warp machine to create a unique texture and feel. After knitting, the fibrous yarn is sheared to create a velvet-like pile. The fill encased within the spheroid is 100% siliconized polyester fiber that is created by melt spinning. The fiber has been crimped at an average 9 crimps per inch. The pillow contains no more than 70 grams of fiber per one inch of diameter. This ratio provides the optimal deformation and pressure for a heightened sensory experience.
