Unfortunately I did not get picked to be at the Bazaar Bizarre this year. On the other hand, I could enjoy the Maker Faire with my family. Thanks to the Exploratorium handing out solar viewing glasses we could follow the whole process. Got some cool pics of sun/moon shadows.

We found a stray chicken in the street behind our house.
We eventually caught her, not easy because she was quite a good flyer. I am now learning about chickens and planning a chicken coop. Was amazing when
the chicken after two weeks suddenly decided to lay a daily egg.

Have also been busy learning to knit. Thought I should
as a hommage to fibers and wool.
Made a pair of socks, not perfect, but warm and cozy.

This summer in Colorado I visited a store that was selling what was basically wool from the armpits of baby
buffalo. Extremely  soft and expensive.

On the web I now found the most exclusive wool:
from the arctic muskox, the Qiviuk (good scrabble word!).

It does not shrink, and can not be used for felting, however. ]]><![CDATA[Post Title.]]>Thu, 08 Sep 2011 16:34:09 GMThttps://www.wildandwoolyworld.com/blog1/post-title-click-and-type-to-edit3Really like this site and hope to see the exhibit:

It's the story of Angela Hazeltine Pozzi and her
art made from trash from the ocean. ]]><![CDATA[Post Title.]]>Thu, 08 Sep 2011 16:32:21 GMThttps://www.wildandwoolyworld.com/blog1/post-title-click-and-type-to-edit2We were off on a road trip for  3 weeks (Grand Tetons, Yellowstone, Great Basin. Yosemite...amazing nature),
