Commentary

Standing around the table of some lamb farmers from whom I bought a remarkable shoulder only two months ago, I noted that they now had throws, shawls, and scarfs made from the same animals. They were absolutely gorgeous, all with their natural color, loomed in their own homes and now for sale at a stunning Christmas market in an old New England estate.
