Hello, I'm Lea, I'm a full time home educating mama to Elfie, working from home in a rural creative cottage industry. I'm a textile artist, and love heritage crafts, and history of crafts, and I'm passionate about helping to keep the old skills alive and growing.
Me and Elfie spend lots of time crafting together, we spin yarns & art yarns, weave on rigid heddle looms & tapestry looms (& I'm just setting up new work on a table loom) Elfie also tablet weaves on a backstrap loom. we sew, knit, crochet, paint, print, make jewellery, do pottery, wet felting, & needle felting, & I whittle wood, & have started learning basketry.
I started this channel to share our arts, crafts, vlogs, natural living, and I'm neurodiverse so I also share my videos about autism / aspergers and adhd as an adult female, to hopefully help other autistic people, and raise awareness, acceptance and self esteem.

Tea In The Wagon In this one I am joined by my friend and fellow creative, Pamela. To be able to get us both into the shot, we had to move the camera further back than usual, so the sound has come out quieter than usual. I'm saving up for some better equipment for the future, but I decided to post this one anyway. (In the next one the camera will be closer again as usual.) We worked on our craf...

    Hello, I'm a new subscriber from Renfrew Ontario Canada. I raise Angora goats and Shetland sheep. The colours you're using are beautiful. What brand are they? You mentioned that you use a picker for prepping wool fleeces. Do you recommend using it on fine wools?

      @@joannehoward3807 hi, it's lovely to meet you. These ones are Kraftkolour landscape dyes, they are beautiful colours. I have no idea, but I would probably do it, I put a beautiful baby alpaca fleece through my wool picker and it's come out lovely, I work on a swinging picker made by classic carder, they make them with the proper tines, and I do remember them saying that some other makers just use nails and that rips the fibers. I hope that helps.
