"What a charming thing for young people this is, Mr. Darcy! There is nothing like dancing after all. I consider it as one of the first refinements of polished societies."
- Sir William Lucas of Pride and Prejudice
These luxury art batts reminded me so very much of the dance at the assembly room--the first of many dances in Pride and Prejudice.
They will be a delight to spin or felt. They are made of merino wool, muga silk, bamboo, alpaca, and a bit of shimmery firestar--all soft, lovely fibers for something to wear next to your skin.
I think these batts would make a gorgeous shawl, whether knit, crocheted, woven or felted.
