I have a new favourite cap! Drui made it for me, and it left me quite amazed. For her skill, for the fact that she made it for me, for the complexity of the fabric... and I am very grateful I met her, it turns out an economic success business partnership...;-) I am kidding, of course...
Anyway, it´s made from wool, and while it´s keeping my noggin nice and warm in this foul weather we have over here these days, it´s not hot. Great one, and it was a right surprise and a big delight for me.
Danke, lieber Mensch!!!
Those are the adventures of Mr. Fimbulmyrk, in bushcraft and blacksmithing, mountainbiking and hiking, reenactment, writing, singing, dancing, stargazing and having a piece of cake and a coffee. Pray have a seat and look around you, but be warned - the forest´s twilight is ferocious at times.
