There is a young couple that lives in Germany and is originally from our little community. The husband serves in the military, and the wife started her own weaving business. How many people do you know that are 24 or 25 and weave? How many people do you know that weave? I know one.
I bought a scarf from her, and it just arrived this week... very fast from Germany. The uniqueness is that they are made from bamboo. Gosh, I love bamboo. Bamboo sheets are soft and luxurious. I have had a bamboo ball cap that breathes like none other. So so soft. When I saw that her scarves were bamboo, I had the difficult task of which one I was going to try. My middle name is allergies, and that's because I can break out in a rash with mundane clothing items, medicines, or even an accidental scratch from a tree branch. One of the hundreds of things I am allergic to is wool. Doesn't matter what form of wool it is, the highest quality, cashmere, lambswool -- my skin can't handle it. Really, it's a blessing in disguise. Limits my sweater purchases, socks, gloves and SCARVES.
I found this scarf in her Etsy shop.
It is a wheat color with white stripes. It was so soft and cozy when I pulled it out of the package, I put it on right away. Inside the house. I've worn it all weekend. Inside the house. I really need to press it so it doesn't look like it is brand new with folds in it. Thanks, Katey!
