Re: Spinning around the world
Spinning sheep wool into yarn by hand. Here’s a Turkish spindle used to make this ball of fine yarn. The wool fibers you see here are different – the yarn spun from this wool will be coarser and thicker.

Re: Folk belts and sashes in Ukraine
Interesting way of tying a belt. This is a male folk attire from western Ukraine. The wide belt is woven, with long fringe at the ends. It is tied so that the fringe hangs in the front.
