This piece of gorgeousness belongs to *me*, Clara made it for my Christmas present! It's as soft as it can be (mohair and silk), and weighs as much as a feather.
The main body is this beautiful repeating leaf pattern,
and each short end is made from knot stitch.

Lovely!
Is the pattern's source something she would be willing to share?
Such a beautiful scarf. Well done to Clara. And lucky you. I appreciate that you gave us the source as I would like to make this myself, perhaps for my Mum too.
I am an evangelical Christian. I have two daughters whom I homeschool: Bella (15), and Daisy (8), and three older children: Giles (21), a college graduate, Felix (19), a college junior, and Clara (17), a college freshman. I'm 42 years old and happily married to my Dear Composer. We live in a 1920's school converted into a home, outside of town. And God is good.
Feel free to Pin my photos, but please link back to the page you found them on.
Photography
Photography is an important part of life at my house. Photos that appear here are taken by Giles, by the Composer, and by me. Giles is a real, paid photographer, and he uses a Sony Alpha. Most of the photography prior to September 2008 is his. Since then I have done most of the shooting and I use a Konica Minolta. Additionally, the Composer offers me nice shots on occasion, often from his little Canon point and shoot. I've given up trying to note who's done what. Thanks for your interest!

Gorgeous shawl. Congratulations to Clara--wonderful work.
Ohhhh...so lovely! Clara does beautiful work!
Her knitting is amazing. It is like an orchestral score, in silk and mohair. And she conducted.
