Hi there! I just wanted to let you know that the laceweight wrap I mentioned during the interview is available for sale on my website now:

My "experiment" with laceweight that I mentioned has turned into an almost overnight success and it is already at #4 in Ravelry's most popular recent crochet patterns. :-)
