Okay, when was someone going to tell me that you can take the soft and fluffy fur from some forms of rabbits and spin it into thread? And that you can then use that to make things like sweaters and scarves and gloves?
I had heard of some sorts of work in these areas of course. I'm a tailor, how could I not? Yet it strikes me that most women I knew growing up, that my parents saw fit for me to socialize with, were more focused on the creation of embroidered items or the tatting of lace.
[Don't blame his parents, those were considered very appropriate tasks for young noblewomen.]
Though I admit that I've no fathoming of how one turns the resultant fibers into these things. I've put together delicate gloves at the shop of course, but never anything like a sweater, and what point is there to our shop making scarves when they are little more than lengths of fabric when we deal with them?
Oh dear, I learn new things every passing toward winter, and I do not know how I am to live life with this knowledge without learning more. Where would one even get so special of a rabbit as was suited to make fibers from their fur?
