MountainWitch ⛤:flag_bisexual:I was a seamstress and costumer for decades but fibre arts was never something I got into. Now, most of my handmade crafts involve jewelry, clay, woodworking, painting, pyrography, ink making, incense and herbs, etc. My daughter is the spinning and weaving person in the family and she teaches classes in the artisan shop she owns. Today I took one of her classes on weaving. This is my very first try. This photo is before it is washed, trimmed, blocked and the fringe tied. It took me 6 and a 1/2 hours from warping the loom to cutting it off. The yarn is acrylic because I didn't want to use expensive wool to learn. The next thing I will make is a thicker shawl and if I can find some alpaca wool, that would be my first choice. I will need to borrow one of her larger looms. <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NewSkill" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NewSkill</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/prepping" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#prepping</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/crafting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#crafting</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/weaving" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#weaving</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/IAmInSoMuchTrouble" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#IAmInSoMuchTrouble</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/fibrearts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fibrearts</a>

zerph<a href="https://kolektiva.social/@mountainwitch" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@mountainwitch</a> Hm. That‘s exactly my approach. An idea: Why not form a community of like-minded, skilled people here on mastodon, keep it going as long as possible and answer questions? Everyone has a skill and a talent, I guess. One could share ideas, concepts, get to know new approaches, and adapt them. The more you know, the quicker you learn, right? <a href="https://sueden.social/tags/socialprepping" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#socialprepping</a> <a href="https://sueden.social/tags/preparedness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#preparedness</a> <a href="https://sueden.social/tags/prepper" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#prepper</a> <a href="https://sueden.social/tags/prepping" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#prepping</a>

Mikesomething I've been doing over the last few days has been to review the contents of our household emergency grab bag. Unfortunately it seems to be morphing into a grab suitcase!I'm not someone with <a href="https://cupoftea.social/tags/prepping" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#prepping</a> tendencies, but I've learned (mainly when I was working) that it's important to be prepared for the eventuality of having to leave your home at short notice for an indeterminate time.None of us know when disaster is going to strike our home or neighborhood (let alone other events), so a bit of foresight can be worthwhile insurance.<a href="https://cupoftea.social/tags/grabbag" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#grabbag</a>

MountainWitch ⛤:flag_bisexual:If someone gave you a spinning wheel, a loom and a sheep, you COULD make your own clothes. But it would probably take you years to teach yourself how and you would be freezing and in rags before you figured it out. However, if you were also friends with someone who knew how to look after the sheep, shear it's wool, clean, card and spin that wool, weave the threads on the loom and then show you how to cut and sew a garment, it would go much faster. Now if you ALREADY had those skills when you had the leisure time, money and people/resources to learn, you would not only be way ahead of the game but you could sell or barter your product and your knowledge as the needs arise. Think about all the things you have and use that you have no idea how they were produced or where they came from. Think about all the people in your community with different skills and talents that you could learn from or trade and barter from.The point is, learn some primitive skills now. Find out what you have inherent talent in. Experiment. Look for local resources. Find your people. Learn all kinds of different ways to look after yourself and your family when things collapse. Our high tech world is fragile and not sustainable. People are going to be shocked at how fast things fall apart and break when the means to continually consume, replace or repair are interrupted. <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/GetPrepared" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GetPrepared</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Prepping" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Prepping</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/collapse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#collapse</a>

MountainWitch ⛤:flag_bisexual:Live frugally and resourcefully. Here are a few tips: -replace zippers in coats, it’s easy, take your time, save a ton of money. Even if you have to hire someone to do it, it is way cheaper than buying a new coat. -don’t buy packaged or over-packaged food, learn how to cook, bake bread, make things from scratch-educate yourself on quality, buy beat up used furniture and refinish, you can end up with a great piece of furniture with only a little bit of work for next to nothing-repair your computers and devices or find someone local to do it. -if you MUST replace appliances, buy basic hardworking non-computerized, metal component items either new or used. In future, you will be able to repair yourself and chances are they will last much longer. Unless you are a tech pro, you won’t be able to fix computerized parts in appliances. I replaced a computerized sewing machine that cost as much as a used car when IT was used with a basic non-computer new one. It will last until I’m long dead and cost a fraction of the price. -find better ways of doing things such as using a metal or wooden soil blockers for starting seedlings in stead of plastic sectioned trays that only last a season or 2 then end up in the landfill. -in the ethnic sections of grocery stores you can buy bulk packages of single spices and herbs way cheaper than little bottles to make your own blends such as curry powder, taco seasoning, meat rubs, etc. Use mason jars to store everything in. If you have a bulk barn nearby you can even reuse your own bags to buy in.-put your leftover meals in the freezer in portions right after dinner. You avoid forgetting to use them and having to throw out food. End of the week, you have healthy ready-made food and spreading out the meals so that you don't have to eat the same thing multiple days in a row. -you can get a lot more wear out of old runners by only replacing the insole-I just rebuilt my home first aid station. I have quality bought kits for the vehicles but for at home, the ready-made kits have lots of unnecessary fillers. I bought various sized gauze pads, tape, rubbing alcohol and hydrogen peroxide, cotton balls, bactine spray, polysporin, big packs of bandaids, etc. as these are the things we use at home. I keep ice packs in the freezer and a heat pad for muscle stuff. Consider the usual type of injuries with regards to your lifestyle and stock accordingly. -learn how to replace handles on axes, shovels, garden tools etc. And when buying these tools, make sure they have replaceable handles as some new plastic or hastily welded ones are not replaceable. -I NEVER throw out a scrap of wood, ever. I have used every single little piece in some place, somewhere on my property. <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/prepping" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#prepping</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/GetPrepared" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GetPrepared</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Homesteading" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Homesteading</a>

Learn about topography, which direction the streams and rivers flow in your area, which direction valleys lay, time of sunrise/sunset for time of year, trace out your area on the maps, find landmarks, roads, bridges, etc. Of course you'll be lost if you don't do your homework ahead of time. <a href="https://www.maptown.com/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.maptown.com/</a> <a href="https://www.maptrove.ca/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.maptrove.ca/</a> <a href="https://www.mapart.com/Canada_c_136.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.mapart.com/Canada_c_136.html</a> <a href="https://www.worldofmaps.com/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.worldofmaps.com/</a>Now this is just rural stuff.

MountainWitch ⛤:flag_bisexual:Buy and practice using paper maps. Having directional awareness can save you in many un-anticipated circumstances. Do not rely on GPS. Not only because it is often wrong, it does not take into account road or bridge construction, or other obstructions, but because it is controlled by people that might not have your best interests in mind. Paper maps, old ones and newer ones show where roads are or have been, the connections, directions and landmarks. Learn them, use them. Skill building.

MountainWitch ⛤:flag_bisexual:A continually horrified friend ask me how I can handle seeing this stuff day after day without losing it. I sent her a long answer and I have taken out the really vulnerable personal bits but here is the gist of it. She was saying things like don't look, read a book instead, turn off everything? My answer is that I guess you can do that if it makes you feel better but for me, it is all still there anyway, it's not going away and getting worse while I'm not looking. So for me, thinking of the world situation as chronic illness instead of acute illness is how I cope. We must live WITH the knowledge that our world is changed, perilous and our days will be days as warriors WHILE we water the plants, while we feed the animals, while we grow and preserve food, while we look after each other and create an ever growing list of friends and allies. We walk alongside this now instead of fighting against it. It's easier for me now as I read each new thing or watch each new video because it is no long switching up my world view or shifting my paradigm but it is simply adding to my knowledge base which is helping me to be a more effective warrior. My goal now is to spread as much knowledge and awareness as I can while at the same time, keeping the roof over my family's head and healthy food in the pantry. As many people as possible refusing to capitulate to these monsters is the only way forward. Of course it is important to note that I am Canadian, and what I will have to think/do is not the same as Americans, but the threats are eventually the same.<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/USpol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#USpol</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/prepping" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#prepping</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/resist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#resist</a>

MountainWitch ⛤:flag_bisexual:The talk of the month (year) here is buying Canadian. What I am seeing a lot of, though, is comments like, “what about this particular product brand”, “I can't find a Canadian equivalent of this exact thing”, “I only like such and such, what is the Canadian version of it”... etc. etc. Ok come ON. Time to shake things up, make changes, maybe even different personal choices, leave your comfort zone and get real. If you are struggling to live your life because you can't get a particular brand of any corporate produced, over-packaged, highly processed SOMETHING, you have bigger problems than our trade war with the US. For more than 20 years I have been talking about and giving ideas of how to use less energy, live with less consumption, make less garbage, and live lighter on the land. If you are filling a garbage bag a week, and have no backup systems for power outages, store closures and supply interruptions, it's time to get with the game. Buying Canadian is absolutely important, but even more important is buying locally, in season food from farms and gardens in your area, growing your own where possible, buying used and reclaimed goods, making your own, mending, repairing, refurbishing, and making do. Try eating different kinds of food, learning different ways of doing things, get creative with your day to day living. And further to this, instead of expecting other people on the internet to do this work for you, try doing some searching, label reading, and sourcing on your own. This is a built-in resilience against these kinds of situations that we are finding ourselves in now. It also makes life a hell of a lot more interesting. <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/tariffs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#tariffs</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/USpol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#USpol</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CanPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CanPol</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/prepping" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#prepping</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/GetPrepared" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GetPrepared</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/homesteading" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#homesteading</a>
