I L. G. , in full possession of my faculty of weaving, I have hand-woven these scarves with a thread so thin that, in every scarf, there are 2 kilometers and 160 meters of yarn... all passed through my my hands. I was deligthed like a spider :-)
"No weaver would dare to warp with a thread like this! It's just good for the weft" I was told by Mr. Pucci, who is the father of that yarn. In fact, that's a brushed mohair: is a very hairy yarn, which is intriguing and is caught in the game of heddles. :-(
But I've tried. Sometimes it happened that a thread broke. No matter, even better: while I fixed, I seized the opportunity to leave a trace with a thread of different colors, I so tattooed the body of the cloth. This is the secret of the mysterious tracks that cover the work: they are the scars of my surgery. Quite tribal! Is it n't? :-)
Each shawl measuring 50 x 200 cm, weighs only gr. 240 and of course, is a unique piece, I beg only € 60.00 + € 4.15 registered shipping

I really like when people are expressing their opinion and thought. So I like the way you are writing
It is useful to try everything in practise anyway and I like that here it's always possible to find something new. :)
