blog after a busy week....

Tom and I headed down to Hobart last Thursday for his dad's Gallery Exhibition which went really well!

 It was great mingling with so many artisits who were very interested in my crochet, I was talking to one lovely older lady who was an art teacher before she retired and turned to her days painting her retirement, was so good to be able to talk about art. afterwards we went for a nice meal in North Hobart :)

While we were down in Hobart we checked out Salamanca which was lovely, so much atomosphere and craft around :)

                                               I was spoilt by Mr Tom who took me to the Wool Centre in Ross!!!! 's very interesting there with a display on the local wool and its history including the female prison of later years

                       Tom bought me some lovely Tasmanian hand spun wool, just look at the colour

                     I think I am going to make a vest with this green colour and wear a chunky retro belt with it.

                 Here is a beannie order that I have nearly finished making for another customer! It will be an earflap beannie when done. I got a few more orders down in Hobart, in particular a Dad and matching daughter earflap beannies! :)  

                   Below is my new Jacket from Hobart, and the little lace scarf I bought today at Red Cross
