Tove sent this one along and linked to it in his own Livejournal. You can read his entry for it at:

Meet Amy Ritchie, homeschooler and hobbyist SKINNER. She's all proud and stuff. Unfortunately, her site seems to have died or been taken down between the time Tove sent this along and today.

This was one of the images she had on her skinning page.

I don't mean to make fun of her. I'm a fan of homeschooling, although not a fan of skinning. I do find it interesting that she has become a near-expert on this subject, that this is her hobby. It's something she never could have learned at a public school, and a dying art, and something that probably most people knew how to do before the industrial age.
