Modern Heirloom
Any of our cobwebs would do for this shawl, 100% Silk, 100% tencel called Angel Hair, and a Cashmere blend we call CashCob Blend, feel just like cashmere. See the cobweb page to order.
Another Yarn Fairy Original this is a “modern heirloom” shawl. Why modern? There are no seams and we will work from the center out for a long time. With our fine thread, tiny needles and small faceted beads we will make a work of art over a years time. When you are done, the shawl will be a massive work of art that may just win you blue ribbons at the local state fair.
