Literally: the writing in stone. In Nepal such tablets stand at temples and crossroads, and they often outlast the buildings they once belonged to.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA grey-blue reminiscent of washed-out stone and of nothing else. It is not an even shade: light and dark fibres lie side by side, and depending on the light the scarf appears cooler or warmer. It has no pattern and needs none — woven smooth, softly brushed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat makes it special is felt rather than seen — \u003cstrong\u003e14.8 microns\u003c\/strong\u003e, the finest yarn we weave. Eight of these threads, twisted together, 8 gauge, give 200 grams over 70 × 184 cm (28 × 72 in): a warm winter scarf from a yarn that is otherwise used for thin wraps. The fringes are unknotted; the fibres simply run out at the end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat is exactly where the work lies. The finer the yarn, the more threads the same surface needs. This scarf spends \u003cstrong\u003e25 to 28 days\u003c\/strong\u003e on the hand loom — almost a month, for something that looks as if it were simple.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Namaste Kids Help Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52195066216714,"sku":"1002038","price":229.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0279\/4913\/7995\/files\/IMG_1177.jpg?v=1764485257","url":"https:\/\/namaste-kids.shop\/en-int\/products\/kaschmirschal-silalekh","provider":"Namaste Kids Help Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
