Ophelia, I see what you mean about doubling—winding the double strand around twice gives me four strands, whereas this one is just a little too short to go around more than once. But I can come close to the effect of multiple lengths of the moon/stars one with a choker. I have several.

ETA yes, it’s on a different continent now.

Ahh I'm too late to this thread. I was going to say you could use it as something other than a necklace, so that she still sees it - like a belt, bag charm or even wrapped around your wrist as a bracelet!

Oh well, I know what it's like to keep clothing in multiple continents - maybe an idea will come to you when you're next reunited with it (& your sister). COVID has been a great time to virtually evaluate my UK wardrobe - glad I took photos of my closet the last time I was home

Thanks Zaoebi—great suggestions. You were smart to take the closet pix. I hope you get to see your family & friends back home happy, healthy, and soon.
