Albrea, Cedar City, UT
Over 26 square yards of fabric in the largest handmade Albrea Throw and Cocoon creates a luxurious "naturally weighted" feeling that is very comforting. The elastic thread stitching patterns create a unique puckering stretchable fabric which "hugs" the user, traps air for warmth, and results in an extremely warm, soft, soothing throw or cocoon with a beautiful rich texture for your home decor. One of the goals of the artists (a mother-daughter team) is achieved by helping the user decrease stress and anxiety by calming themselves in a simple and natural way. The cocoon is especially helpful to children with autism or social anxiety disorder.
A Wrap/Stole/Shawl is also fashioned using 10-12 square yards of fabric with the same unique sewing technique, again giving warmth, texture and beauty. This sewing technique is also fashioned into an Infinity Scarf.
