Port Hope Fair 2010

Wendy and Yvonne after our set-up at the Fair. The quilts in the background are not ours.



" Odd" fibres on display.


There's been a long gap in our postings, but we are still here and active.


We are participating again in the Port Hope Fair. This year our display and demonstration is together with the Northumberland Hooks and Needles guild.


Since the Fair theme this year is "Corn is King", members of both guilds decided to spin and knit/crochet articles made of only vegetable fibres, including corn. Also on display are such oddities as as a scarf made of banana fibre, a candle decoration knit from nettle yarn and pineapple fibre.
