She likes to learn about others' A&S skills, and can often be found sitting next to people with an unfamiliar fibre art form, working on her own historical knitting research, or planning something A&S related. Ysabel has been lately experimenting with chandlery. She makes candles from beeswax exclusively: dipped, rolled, and poured. ===== Awards ===== * **[[awards:bunny_tail|Bunny Tail]]** - January 6th, 2024 ===== Contact Information ===== Ysabel can be best contacted via [[ysabel.hudon@gmail.com|email]].
