It is available, all right, but the price is $84 per ounce! A Link to Qiviut I've seen it and handled it only in a hood but it is marvelous stuff. Picture a cloud with a little substance stirred in. |

23 May 09 - 11:27 AM (#2639303) Subject: RE: BS: A Jacqui Shawl From: jacqui.c Thank you for the kind words. I so enjoy the process of making the shawls and blankets and get a lot of selfish satisfaction when I think of the reaction when someone opens the package. That,in itself, is enough reward. I read somewhere that crochet (and knitting) are as good for stress relief as yoga - if that is so I must be positively horizontal! Anyway, if I kept everything I made we wouldn't be able to move for woolly stuff! |

23 May 09 - 06:51 PM (#2639585) Subject: RE: BS: A Jacqui Shawl From: Bat Goddess Mine is rich tones of blue, green and purple -- magnificent combination! (And my favorite colors.) Big enough that I can engulf myself and my huge smile (thinking of Jacqui) in it. I wore black with silver jewelry and wrapped my body in it to attend an operatic recital (featuring our up-the-hill neighbors' daughter with an amazing voice) and felt the most elegantly turned out person in the audience. She also made me a smaller, more lace-like summer wrap. Continuing thank yous! Jacqui, have you read "The Knitting Sutra: Craft as a Spiritual Practice" by Susan G. Lydon? Linn |
