Green with Envy?

I just received a wonderful present in the mail! Behold: Well, we have a wonderful little tote and some mementos from Italy! What a great town- I'd love to visit there someday. Let's look inside, shall we? It's all green! Yarn, candy, a cute notebook, pencils, beads and buttons! I was so delighted to keep pulling out treasures! Of course, I was immediately attracted to this: You can't feel it, but trust me. It is soft and lovely to touch. I think I might make a scarf out of it using these: Beads in blue and green! The perfect size for using in lace shawls. I've been looking all over for beads that weren't silver lined- I guess I didn't look in Italy! Thanks, Berni!
