Exhibition

We had a pretty good exhibition with Knitters Guild Kiama on last week and weekend, along with a good SNB exhibition in Wollongong. I got along to SNB exhibition on Saturday arvo with my Mum and Sister then we went for coffee at a new cafe on the Harbour, we haven't had a girlie afternoon in probably 22 years.


I sold heaps of my stuff at Kiama exhibition, and gave the scarfs left to Tianne to take to the Salvos charity for the needy, I have sent off all the beanies I made along with a few from Tianne to Just Enough Faith in Sydney, they should have them tomorrow or the next day.



Books from Amazon, I got Yarn Harlot's Knitting Rules and Mason-Dixon The Curious Knitters Guide and from Readers Digest Two Stitch Knits, I can't wait to have time to read them all.

I finished the black vest last week for #2 son's GF, and guess where I found it tonight, in the washing machine, not even in the lingerie bag to protect it, yes it is a machine wash wool that I used, but I thought she would have hand washed it for a while atleast.

I am doing a baby jumper in Aran pattern for a cousin's son who is one year old next week, his party is Saturday week in Sydney, so I am busily knitting even at during my lunchtime at work. I have nearly finished the back.

Aunty Rose called in to see the Knitters Exhibiton and had her picture taken in front of the squares she knitted and we have made into blankets for the mental health ward at our local hospital.
