Long Stitch From India
I found a needlework store by accident while on a walking tour of Colaba. Surprisingly, my guide let me in. He was both interested and confused, as he didn't know people actually did these things for leisure. These are all Indian designs and were about half the price of the same kind of kit in the US.

Decision Time
I've started back to work on this, as I'm back from India. I'm running out of the pearl cotton used for the edging. This lead me to think. The pearl cotton is a Polish brand and it'll be a while until I get back there. The color's unusual enough that it'd be hard to find. So... I am going to stop after the next three sections. It'll leave a nice, squarish piece. Now to get those three sections done.

Shawls
I bought these three shawls in Mumbai. All are soft and pretty, but out of different materials. I'd get them out of packaging and wear them here, but my husband has decided to keep letting the cat into our adjoining closet on his side. I hate cats. And I hate cat fur on things I want to wear. He doesn't get that, so they stay packaged until I can get away from this dreadful house in this dreadful place and enjoy wearing what I want to wear without cat hair.
