Majacraft Magic Camp

What a great weekend I had at the Majacraft Magic Camp, run by Mandie and Janet.  Caroline and I drove up to the back of Bacchus Marsh (detour at Gisborne for a needed coffee break).

I did a few different workshops, how to cast on for a Möbius, using the Cat Bordhi method.  That was great fun.  I cast on 2 Möbius scarves to keep me going, so I could check with Bernadette if I had cast on properly.  I also did a workshop on spinning yarn for socks with Carmel, Combs with Glynis, and weaving with Donni.

 The fibre sandwich everyone contributed to. 

  Everyone took home 100grams of fibre

 My messy experiment with weaving techniques.  I managed all this in less than an hour.  I can see why weaving is so addictive....it's so quick once the loom is warped up.
This is the stash I brought home.  This should keep me going for awhile!
