Offcial announcement

As many of you asked, and as I promised, after a long, long time I started to update the pages where you can see what is available to buy.

For now I've uploaded a few of the more pastell wools, but I am working on the rest too.

So slowly, carefully, but surely... you can browse.

Running around

The backdraw to be at the craft fair as a participant, that you can't really get out, even though these events for me just as much about being together and meeting new friends, 
However, there were days when I didn't even got out that small hmmm... garden? part of teh castle grounds where we had our station...
  My fair-present was even selected from across the small road from us, I only had difficult time to decide which pair should I get.
 I could only rush around in one of the mornings, though I did spend some time with the weaver from India, who had amazing stuff.


 The guest country was Üzbeghistan, their exhibitors had the most amazing felted stuff, including this technicolor purple coat...
 and china...
And of course I could not miss out getting a picture with the felt queen Klara Gera.
 And Bori... You know the friends you dearly love but meet only like once or twoce a year at events like this?
I had new pupils for spinning, I did my share spreading the spinning bug...
As well as the crochet and knitting bug...
(In other world, if you want festival hair, you might as well crochet the ribbons to go in yourself)

And those without whom I couldn't do it... Christopher and Bogi (representing all the others I missed taking pictures of...

Boglárka, without whom I would probably still sitting there on my bags, hoping to teleport them home.
 And Deák Péter, as well as all the others of the Craft Circle... I am the luckiest person to have you all as a friend.
