Paivi Suomi

Cancer x1, Vax x2, Covid x4. It's time to live again. I love to work with heritage crafts using nature's materials in a sustainable way.

Over the recent months, I have developed some EMF related sensitivities. I purchased some EMF clothing that seems to work but they are not very fashionable. The advantage of being a handweaver and spinner is that I can experiment with making my own. I have started this exploration by handspinning some wool using metallic yarns as a core. After spinning this I will dye the yarn with natural plant dyes.

NALBINDING SOCKS - I have started to nalbind a pair of socks using my handspun wool yarn. Spencer the Cat joined me as I stitched. Sorry about the blurry video - I didn't have my webcam set up properly.

My father was a Sea Sami from northern Finland/Russia border. He transcribed many of his adventures onto cassette tapes and asked me to publish them when technology made it possible. https://t.co/jEFmu7qfkA

I am back in Canada for a few weeks. There was some lichen growing on our old shed roof. The roof needed repairs so the lichen was removed. I thought that I would try to dye some of it. I will post videos on my progress. https://t.co/hxKWrqwElj

I have now moved the AllFiberArts website to a new server in Albania - here's why. https://t.co/4XfWKwZviD

[Paivi Suomi @Allfiberarts]

Due to the rising cost of webservers costs and a recent server crash on my US server- I lost a lot of files on my website. Therefore I have moved AllFiberArts and Paivatar to new servers, hosted in Albania. I hope that you stop by and have a visit. I am still in the midst of recovering what I can. https://t.co/dx2VjIjGnG

I am moving my AllFiberArts website to a new server (hosted in another country) Reasons.. significant cost savings and much improved download speeds. The old .com version will be redirected once the updates are complete. Please visit https://t.co/83lTgIcuDk
