[luv-talk] Event of interest

Hello All, I will be at the Lost Trades Fair at the Kyneton racecourse this coming weekend. There will be a lot of demonstrators of various older crafts and skills, many still relevant in many ways. I will be demonstrating handspinning, taking raw fleece, alpaca on this occasion, in the past sheep wool, and producing a yarn that can be turned into a fabric, by knitting, crocheting, or weaving. If any of you do get there, I will be using a steel framed spinning wheel with a bicycle wheel that my father made for me about 45 years ago. There will be jewellers, a printer with a hand cranked press, stonemasons, armorers, and I remember a fletcher who made arrows. Regards, Mark Trickett
