Shyara Shawls

If you're looking for Shyara Shawls, you’ll find us on the first floor of 1742 in Sector 4. It’s not the most modern building but it suits us just fine. Carrying the heavy bundles of wool and fabric up those stairs every day keeps us in shape, though my knees complain a bit when it’s raining. Inside, it’s mostly just stacks and stacks of shawls. We have different colors and patterns everywhere you look. It’s not very organized to an outsider, but we know where everything is kept. The light isn't the best in the back room so we do most of our quality checks near the window. We spend a lot of time just looking for loose threads or small snags that need fixing. It’s a quiet kind of work. We aren't doing anything fancy or trying to change the world. We just sell shawls to people who need them. Sometimes the neighborhood kids make a lot of noise outside, but otherwise, it’s a peaceful spot. My sister comes in a few days a week to help with the packing and the labels. We use an old wooden desk that’s been in the family for years. We don't have any glossy catalogs. People usually just come in and feel the fabric for themselves. It’s a practical way to run things and it works for us. We don't have a receptionist, so if you come by and we're in the back, just give us a shout.
