Spinning and knitting are traditional crafts with deep roots. Working with a spinning wheel and knitting needles allows you to explore various techniques for creating thread and fabric, experiencing the rhythm and tranquility of handcrafted work.
Zinaida Kirillova
My name is Zinaida. I started knitting at the age of 10, and handicrafts immediately became my favorite pastime. Later, around age 25, my mother taught me to spin, and over time, this passion became my life's work.
Now I'm 74 years old, and I've been making a living from my craft for many years. I'm a teacher by profession, but spinning and knitting remain my favorite pastimes, bringing joy and inspiration.
I love working with yarn, creating things by hand, and preserving the traditions of ancient crafts, capturing the warmth of handcrafted work in every piece.
