The collective knowledge on this forum never ceases to amaze me.
I admire anybody keeping traditional craft skills alive. In Japan, masters of traditional crafts can be given the honor of "Living National Treasure". The craft skill does not need to be "sexy" like say, forging Samurai swords. One guy with the title makes brooms. I wish we had a similar recognition here.
As for fiber crafts, I once saw a demonstration on hand made lace making. Wow, it was insane with pins, the pattern, the adjustments, and the complex pattern of throws to create another layer. I also saw a demonstration on loom weaving once.
Wishing you the best in your art- your skills are part of our collective heritage. And they are needed to today and will be needed tomorrow!!!
