[Artemisia] FW: [northern] Attention spinners

[Heraldic Creations]

Hi there from An Tir,

The below message just came over one of the An Tir lists.  It's about
weaving spider silk and there is a pic of a very beautiful 4'x11' textile.
The article explains about how they got the silk from the spiders also.
Very interesting to say the least, especially for all of you spinners and
weavers out there.  Just click on the link or paste it into your browser.

Former Artemisians but still loving all of you:)

Just when you think the human race has spun every fiber from every source...
