Craft fair entry #2

[wiseheart]

Today I present you the rest of the textile workers' stuff. Pics of other artisans coming up tomorrow.

Little felted caps from Uzbekistan - there were rug-makers, too, with amazing rugs, but I just couldn't get a good angle for a picture.



Needle- or wet-felted little birds and flowers, hanging from above (with even more inconsiderate customers):



A blue dyer with his wares:



A small loom. Several of these could be seen - alas, I couldn't get a good pic of the one where the weaver was actually working.



A spinstress working at her spinning wheel:



There were also a number of embroiderers and other textile workers, but they were in an area where I had to run through rather quickly because I had parked Mum in a shadowy place and wanted to get back to her as soon as possible.

I don't think I've e er seen so many different felted things ...

It is truly amazing. They even had felted shoes and balls and bracelets. I wish I could have made more and better pictures, but the circumstances were anything but ideal for photography.

The fair looks so interesting and the crafted items amazing. I love the hanging birds and bell-like flowers in the 2nd image, also all of the felted rugs and woven fabrics. The designs are just lovely. Wish I could have been there to see.

That would have been grand indeed... because then we could have met in person!
