JUL Filigree Shawl Stick
Handmade Fair Trade in Indonesia
White Brass
Dragonfly:
Stick length: 4.5 inches
Total length: 4.5 inches
The design of this Filigree Dragonfly Shawl Stick is unique compared to our other sticks. We didn't want the ornament to be top-heavy so rather than have the stick extend from the end of Dragonfly's abdomen, the stick is attached to the Dragonfly's head. So the stick runs underneath the Dragonfly's body, with a space between the two into which the knitwear nests, creating an incredibly stable and beautiful effect. The Dragonfly appears to have alighted delicately on the knitwear. And who isn't delighted by that!
Hummingbird:
Stick length: 4 inches long
Total length including ornament:5 inches long
The Filigree Hummingbird, like the Filigree Dragonfly, has a stick that extends up to the top of the ornament, creating a space behind the body of the bird that accommodates the knitwear, making this stick particularly secure and balanced in how it sits on top of your knitted garments and accessories. The weight balance created by this unique design means the Filigree Hummingbird remains feasible even for very light-weight knits. Weighing only slightly more than half an ounce, the Filigree Hummingbird, indeed, is as delicate as a Hummingbird.
Octopus:
Total length: 4.5 inches
The latest in the menagerie of filigree critters, this shawl stick was inspired by the Netflix documentary - My Octopus Teacher, which is so fabulous and inspiring I hope you will watch it. This documentary shows us just how incredibly interesting Octopuses are and gives us a picture of the possibilities for relationships with creatures we would never imagine can become engaged with humans in profound ways.
Sea Turtle:
Stick length: 4.5 inches
Total length: 4.5 inches
The Filigree Sea Turtle has a stick that extends up to the top of the ornament, creating a space behind the body of the turtle that accommodates the knitwear, making this stick particularly secure and balanced in how it sits on top of your knitted garments and accessories. The weight balance created by this unique design means the Filigree Sea Turtle remains feasible even for very light-weight knits.
Tree Frog:
Stick length: 4.5 inches
Total length: 4.5 inches
The Filigree Tree Frog has a stick that extends up to the top of the ornament, creating a space behind the body of the frog that accommodates the knitwear, making this stick particularly secure and balanced in how it sits on top of your knitted garments and accessories.
