Several years ago I purchased one oz of qiviut yarn at Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival. Qiviut is the yarn from a Musk Ox and it is one of the softest (and priciest) yarns on the planet. There's not a lot you can do with one ounce of yarn and I wanted to use it for something special. The woman who sold it to me gave me a pattern for a lace cowl that was perfect. It took me three years to get the courage to start this. I had a false start in May, then picked it up a few days ago, ripped it back to the beginning and started again. I finished three days later, and here it is.
It is so soft and I know I'll wear it a lot this winter when I need just a little something around my neck.
