How do you mail a hug?  I couldn't be with a dear friend who lives out of state when she lost her husband after a long illness.  I sent her this Pashmina with a note instructing her to wrap it around herself and pretend I was there giving her a hug.  I knew it looked very nice online.  My friend said it is absolutely beautiful as well as a lasting memory of our friendship during her time of need.  The presentation in a draw string bag gives it a personal touch when shipping directly to someone as a gift.  Amazon got it there the next day too.  I couldn't be more pleased nor could I have sent a more appropriate sympathy gift to my friend.
