Qiviut is a type of wool woven from muskox by Mhoragian halflings. Muskox herds are allowed to roam free, and the Mhoragian herders are able to harvest the undercoat by setting up fences with special brushes on the posts along the herds' migration routes. The muskox will rub themselves against the posts, and the brushes collect the undercoat fibers which are then collected and spun into qiviut by the Mhoragian halflings. The process of the collection takes a lot of time and patience, and as a result, the cost of qiviut is much higher than many other similar wools.
Qiviut is considered a rarer material as of 2023. Because of this, it requires fodder when used in alterations. See alter fodder for more information.
