Diamond, having just woven this canvas from athelas fruit, conceived of a very good use for it, and it concerned her husband. Diamond was renowned by hobbits Shire-wide as the greatest weaver not just of Long Cleave, or the Shire, but of all Eriador, as many claimed (despite the feats of the Edain of Arnor). The Eldar who yet tarried in the hither lands likened her skill to that of their greatest spinners of fine tapestry, going so far as to name her Perian-Vaire or Vaire of the Periannath.
