Afghans

Basically, there are two afghans, one is cashmere (on the left, under the cat)  and one is a cotton/silk blend (on the right). Nothing looks or feels as yummy as cashmere, but it's still wool, and has the resilience that makes wool wonderful for clothing, and a challenge for miniaturists. As you can see, it will drape on a sofa, etc., but wants a little more encouraging, along with dampening. The cotton/silk, on the other hand, just melts when dampened, and will go most anywhere. The cashmere afghan is available in burgundy,  navy and various pastels, also in bleach white. The cotton/silk is only available in natural. $20 each, both are about 5" by 6"

The rug is a floral dobby pattern I've done in various colors and sizes, this one is $25.
