Für etwa 1,30 m Garn aus gestern geernteter und vorbereiterter #Brennnessel-Grünfaser und für deren Verarbeitung für die Kappe habe ich eine knappe halbe Stunde gebraucht. Es sind 20 Schlaufen geworden. Damit komme ich knapp um die Hälfte des Umfangs. (Siehe Markierung mit rosa Faden.)

Hallo liebe Nerds und Nerd*innen, hat hier irgendjemand eine Ahnung, warum das #Maske-Tragen im westlichen Kulturkreis so ein Riesenproblem zu sein scheint?

Gefühl ist alles;
5000 Jahre sind Schall und Rauch,
Umnebelnd Himmelsglut.

#FaustByGoethe, Vers 3456 - 3458

Feeling is all;
5000 years are sound and smoke,
beclouding Heaven’s glow.

Le sentiment est tout,
5000 ans ne sont que bruit et fumée,
qui nous voile l’éclat des cieux.
