SHADOW DANCING MANTLE

Reminiscent of Rodarte's Vogue-coveted thick thin looped knits, pale blue Mantle is embellished with gemstones to magnify possibilities. The blue apatite offers humanitarianism, meditation, balance, and creativity.

The quartz is a deep soul cleanser and energizer. Made of wild silk (tussah silk) hand-dyed with natural dyes this piece will quickly become reflective of you.

 

With each touch and movement this yarn becomes softer, energized, malleable and flowing-like a miracle embracing you. Picture spun cardboard! That's correct, stiff and coarse. That's how a skein feels--add the forming into a ball, the gliding from single strand into rows of knitted loops, the holding as earthgems are attached, the laying out for measurement . . . with each touch of the hand the silk releases into gentle softness.

 

This Mantle is from the Shadow Dancing Collection so I intentionally touch it with a light hand as seldom as possible to give you the experience of wearing it into silky suppleness as you ponder heart issues. Each wearing brings a new depth of softness--a tangible change that's undeniable and miraculous.

 

A shawl to embrace with touchstones to soothe, crafted from my quiet to inspire yours. A wrap designed with a difference bringing you earth energies (natural fibers, earthgems) and quiet.

 

A mid-back length triangular meditation shawl (40 Days Contemplative Collection) for breathing into pain, dancing with your shadow, breaking an old pattern, creating a new habit, or just being. The three sides represent and merge together one's body, mind, and spirit.

 

Measurements--triangle--26" x 50" with a 3.25" bead drop on each side

 

Packaged in a handmade embellished silk organza envelope.
