🇨🇭🏔️ few weeks ago we emigrated to Meiringen - Switzerland 🥳
Are there any other spinners / weavers / knitters here in the area? I would love to see each other occasionally (or regularly?) and inspire each other 🤩 🧶
(Of course I took my Majacraft Aura out of the moving box first 😜)

🇨🇭🏔️ vor ein paar Wochen sind wir nach Meiringen - Schweiz ausgewandert 🥳.
Gibt es noch andere Spinnerinnen / Weberinnen / Strickerinnen in der Gegend? Ich würde mich freuen, wenn wir uns ab und zu (oder regelmäßig?) sehen und uns gegenseitig inspirieren 🤩 🧶

(Natürlich habe ich zuerst meinen Majacraft Aura aus dem Umzugskarton geholt 😜)

A few years ago my 1st dye experiment. Gotland woo

A few years ago my 1st dye experiment. Gotland wool: top & curls. The top was unfortunately completely felted, it seemed beyond saving. Just like the red-blue top in the previous photos 😭

Paar jaar terug mijn 1e verf experiment. Gotland wol: lont & krullen. De lont was helaas helemaal vervilt, die leek niet meer te redden. Net als de rood- blauwe lont op de vorige foto's 😭

This was the top I dyed in October 2019. All felte

This was the top I dyed in October 2019. All felted! 😭
I then tried to tear small strips of it and then spin them. But even that doesn't work: the wool seemed ruined 😩.
But recently I have very nice #Majacraft hand cards. Now I made beautiful, very fluffy, rolags 🤩. And can I just spin it again 🥳
