Every new crafter brings something special to our community, and today I’m happy to introduce Darya Kitova. We met quite recently, and I remember how she told me that finding a wool craft community in New Zealand was not easy…
Last weekend’s spinning festival was a true celebration of wool and craft. The hall was full of people, stalls with yarns and tools from all over New Zealand, and an atmosphere of warmth and creativity. I left with beautiful yarns, new ideas, and the joy of feeling part of a vibrant community.
Romney is honest, shiny, and sturdy. A few gentle spinning tweaks and you’ll have yarn that loves cables, texture, and everyday wear: cardigans, hats, mitts, even house pieces that actually last.
Some wools arrive in my hands like a whisper, others like a friendly knock on the door.
