Arctic Friends- Musk Oxen

These two fellas were commission by a clothier in Alberta, CA who specializes in qiviut fiber garments. He furnished the rare and costly musk ox fiber, one of the word's softest, that covers these sculptures.

Musk Ox

Qiviut fiber from the musk ox is 8 time softer than wool. While at a Wild Fibers event in Rheinbeck, NY in October, a creator of fine clothing and accessories commissioned this fellow and furnished the fiber for me. This fellow's new home is in Canada at one of Qiviuk's boutiques.
