Your photo made my heart ache so much. I made a snag on my blanc corail one and can't find it anywhere anymore :rain:. Really really love your picture the other day of the sable azur cw, you pulled it off so well!

Chestnutty I know how it feels but if that can alleviate your heart snags can be fixed even on mousses following the same method that dear Brit Abroad shared about cashmere shawls. I made a snag of about 5 inches on one of mine and used a very thin needle and a jeweler's loupe and succeeded to fix the whole snag. It was painstaking and took quite a long time but the result was really worth it !

Thanks ayala_jessica. I alleviated the snag by a needle and massaging right the day I made the snag, so it reduced significantly, however there was a hole and the threads were snagged (cut off at one end), not loops. Unless I send it to re-weave, the more I use, the bigger the hole will get...

I am so sorry to hear that Chestnutty :-(( Did you check whether Hermes could fix the hole, as they should have the row material ?
 
Chestnutty, we will all have to go on high "alert" to look for another moussie in the same CW. If we all look, at some point we should get lucky. I am sorry this occurred to you. I know how you love your "mice". best, bonnie

Thanks sweethearts, my store is doing a global search for it, but I don't have much hope... But if the answer is no, I will send my shawl back to Paris and hope it is mendable.
 
Some of you may know that I love stained glass details on H scarves, so needless to say, Ors Bleus d'Afrique is a must-have for me. I haven't decided on which cw to order for 90cm yet, but when I came across and tried on this shawl at my store, I was sold! The coloration is so unique: a little bit of celery green at the border, a relaxing mint background, accents in kaki and lavender, and "stained" details in turquoise. Adorable!
Please excuse me for the big photo, but I'd like to show close-up how beautiful this mousse layers up and the turquoise "stain" near the lavender star. And yes, plenty of polka dots :p!

Çongratulations, Chestnutty! Your Bleus d'Afrique is heavenly! I have acquired 9 moussies since first collecting them in Mar. However, this cw is so pretty that I couldn't help getting it at the boutique the other day. I mostly get moussies for their coloring but this one is superb in both coloring & detail. Love it to bits!:woohoo:

This is really pretty Chestnutty! Would you have an open pic of the mousse?

And how it layers up vs. one layer
