THE CRAFT

The talented artists at Via Village have developed a substrate, blending whisper-weight merino wool fibers with fine silk, using only water, soap and controlled friction to create a texture like no other—no machinery required.

The finishing touch calls for a garnish of silk strands pulled from the cocoon, adding complexity, shine and a little mystery. The result is a magical material, wonderfully soft with a light warmth.

Via Village regularly yields a lovely collection of scarves and shawls with a versatile, cross-cultural appeal. Each piece is one-of-a-kind.
