Materials

The materials I use are from various sources - there are those I have bought over the years (majority from Finland), but there are also other materials, such as

- white & brown wool from my friend's happy hill sheep from Shetland (used for felting as well as spinning yarn)

- found yarns

- yarns from a closed knitwear factory (through an arts association my mom is member of)

- reused canvases (from old clothes, bed covers, curtains etc)

When possible I'll try to write in the material & source of the materials, although with some of the old yarns I haven't kept this information...
