I am an indigenous Autistic and ADHD artist with a variety of disabilities but an endless capacity for learning and having fun with the little things. Come along and see what mayhem I am up to! I talk to the camera like my own friends are in the room, so you are getting me un-masked and un edited !

I am so sorry for the short delay my most valued and wonderful friends <3 I have had an absolutely terrible flare up of whatever autoimmune thing my body is doing and my face looks like I have leprosy at this point. My birthday is this Monday and I am trying to adjust my videos to not require my talking head at the beginning so we all don't have to be scandalized by my face owies.
If you are at all interested my patreon www.patreon.com/ericakzubris I am working through a nature scavenger's journal with my patrons!!!

High Five You Guys! We Survived 2025. A year that seemed a torment most of the time, but we ground it out didn't we. Thank you so very much to all of my new followers who are discovering all the fibers on Earth with me. You make it so easy to stay motivated. I really hope you like whats coming up soon as we try to use UP all the fibers on Earth that now live in my craft room.
Wishing you the most serendipitous 2026 <3 Erica

I really really appreciate all of you watching my videos with every fiber on earth!!! Here is a sneak peek of my very alarmingly long fiber spreadsheet LOL. Every video after number 36 I have tried to respond to everyone's feedback from the first 35 videos. Please do let me know what you think as they come out, it helps the engagement so much and you are helping me, as a partially disabled artist, live my dream.

Ok my intensive consternation and lack of good data about what constitutes a "mink" a "badger" a "raccoon dog" and a "racoon" in china and russian yarn exports I just emailed the National Fish and Wildlife Forensic Labs to ask them if they would test my yarns... I WILL FIGURE OUT WHAT YOU ARE SHAVING RUSSIA AND CHINA. I WILL. I find it DUBIOUS at best to claim you are shaving racoons and mink tails multiple times per year...

Sometimes I have to work out what idea I had based on what NightbadgerErica purchased all at once in a flurry.
This typically only occurs when I have gotten less than 40% of my needed sleep for more than 9 days. (Concerningly this happens enough that I am .... able to map this as a pattern....)
Anyway. Fortunately "Nightbadger" has a pretty astute grip on her available budget. I mean ALL of the available budget but still. She be not greedy to the point of avarice.
I did remember ordering a COUPLE of yarns to add to the EVERY FIBER ON EARTH pile.... I did not remember buying A BUNCH OF ALL WHITE ONES.... Surely I had a plan for Polypal, Dorset Horn, Targhee, Cormo, Churro, and.... oh god a couple others.... Did you know that Torddu is pronounced Tor-thee and its NOT THE SAME as a *BLANK* (See the Quiz)!! Badger Faced Sheep DON'T TRY TO TELL THEIR SHEPHERDS THEY ARE THE SAME!
I DO remember the plan NOW because I am getting ready to start the DYEING again, and I had the idea of how fun it would be to see all the natural white yarns that humans have bred for for centuries to make them easier to dye and then see how each one uptakes the weird natural dyes OBVIOUSLY.
As of "beforethenightbadger" I only had like... 5 different white breeds of sheep and I thought it would be better to have a nice round number of 10.... IT LOOKS GOOD ON CHARTS.... I don't make the rules...
Anyway uh... I look forward to those... decisions... arriving later. Your pop quiz for the day is to guess which country Torddu
