That's an amazing mental picture, Gnuj! Sounds good!
I always wondered what koala fur felt like. Someone I met said it felt kinda wooly, I think she meant dense b/c their fur is waterproof. But when I look at the pictures koala fur looks so so soft. So today I listened to a caretaker from the Australian Reptile Center (which also has a lot of koalas) hold and talk about them. He said their fur was soft. OMG, I can imagine how wonderful it would be to hold one. A FB member of a koala group said she held one and it was like a life-changing event. Right, absolutely, there's life (if you can call it that) before holding a koala and Life after a cuddle:heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:

They are amazingly soft and really cuddly. :heart:

Have you held one? Sounds like it. This may be an answer to @Gnuj's question about why koalas stack up one on top of another to build a koala tower (or vertical cha-cha line). These animals live and sleep on tree branches which we know are not particularly comfortable. Carers have said koalas love soft pillows. So, when koalas are outside what's the best available pillow???? Another koala!!!!

@hotgalaxy, if you held a koala feel free to disclose every single detail.

Well I can be On topic regarding Hermes chat: just ordered Eleftheria scarf in jaune/rose/vert, so looking forward to receiving that. But on to other important things such a cuddly Koalas. We have a wildlife park close to my home it's called Cohunu Koala Park. When I went there with my DH and some friends we were able to hold and cuddle the Koalas. They are so sleepy, soft, warm and cuddly. Like that lovely soft teddy bear you may have had as a child. Their claws are very sharp though. I love the photos you have posted. Thankyou.

You bet! I love to collect and post them. So, are you in Australia?

Thank you, @hotgalaxy, sleepy, soft. warm and cuddly, and fabulous. The closest I got to live koalas was the on a vacation in Miami Beach we went to the Palm Beach zoo. It's a very pretty zoo, seems to be laid out like a park. There was a koala enclosure, open air with a roof over it. And two napping in the warm afternoon. I got my picture taken with a koala curled up on a tree in the background.

How wonderful to live close to a wildlife park with koalas.

In the chat threads anything goes so the topics can be all sorts of things, non-H and H. But do post your scarf when you get it.
 
Hi all, greetings and best wishes, it’s been a very long time - I hope you all are well! I tried to think of which group would be the smartest and of course I came here straightaway. :P

I am trying to remember the name of the “white paint accent” technique that the artesians of the past used on the scarves? It makes the scarf slightly 3D at the spot. Like in the ice on my Traineaux et Glissades scarf, below.

Many thanks in advance!
