More Treasures Unearthed in My Pre-Spring Cleaning

I’ve been using the lighter colored box for years as a daily work basket, but forgot they I used to pair it with another carved piece from India.

I’m now using the darker box to store spools of thread which I don’t use nearly as often as my embroidery floss.

More than half of the spools are really nice wool thread that my mother had bought when she was experimenting with using wool in her quilts. When she didn’t get into it, I inherited the thread!

I ended up keeping two things for myself out of everything I made last year: the samples for Retiarius and Spurdog. The latter I’ve worn out and gotten compliments on, though I’ve only really styled the former and then gave it up. Anyhow, the actual secret to wearing this type of shawl even if you’re usually very masculine and minimalist in terms of personal style is to embody the attitude that you’re about to rob a train. You get all kinds of compliments.

Putting some hand spun and hand knit garments to the test in below freezing temps. A vintage Pendleton wool skirt, a vintage thick Winter Silk blouse, my hand knit kilt hose, and my hand spun and hand knit hobbiton vest.

learn even the tiniest amount about historical fashion and textiles and you will experience rage beyond comprehension that all the soft, durable, beautiful fabrics have been taken from us and replaced by plastic and cheaper manufacturing

I’ll spend hours spinning thread from wool while chanting as a simple spell for on-the-fly work, I’ll put a strand of someone’s hair into the weft while spinning if it’s for someone specific.

Afterwards I take the thread and wrap it around a candle to burn or tie it to a tree or whatever depending on the nature of the spell.

It’s a great way to get into a trance as well.

I cannot say enough how versatile thread work and weaving is for witchcraft!
