Nagambie Lakes Community Market..

..is on again this Saturday. It will all be held in the park in front of the Lake beside the motel.
I have some new yarns which at present are listed on my etsy shop
www.etsy.com/shop/CraftbyColleen

and don't forget to check out the website at
www.colleenscraftsstore.com

But come and touch the yarns in person.
Following a very successful Bendigo Sheep and Wool Show I have limited stock but will be working hard to bring up the levels. Finishing off a new Adult machine knit jumper at the moment.

 

 



Bendigo Sheep and Wool Show

...here I come. Will be in the Osborne building as part of the North East Yarns. Yarns, garments, accessories, wool tops, felt batts, etc.

Currently gearing up for Bendigo Sheep and Wool Show...

..Have been getting wool tops and yarn dyed. 3kg of tops done in single colours, still to do some multicolours yet. 4.5kg of 8ply yarn done in single tone on tone x 100gm skeins. As the skeins are 500gm lots, have to wind off 100gms first. Time consuming but getting it done.
All tops and yarn are an Australian product of sheep grown in Victorian. Definitely made in Australia. Corriedales!

Oh gosh...

..I know I have been neglectful. But my daughter and granddaughter had been her for 2 months and I have been very time poor. They have now found a new home and I hope things will be better. As a mother you never stop worrying.
Anyway I have managed to do the markets and continue making stuff.
Next weekend is the Queen's birthday long weekend so I will be at the Echuca Steam Rally on the Saturday and Sunday in the Indoor shed Market.
Please introduce yourself if you are visiting that weekend.

Easter Saturday Market at Rushworth..

...is fast approaching.
Check out what is happening at
www.rushwortheasterfestival.org.au

As well as my yarns, I have a small variety of beanies, scarves, mitts, and machine knit garments.

The Yarn Van set up at the Markets..

...seems to be working well, and lots of compliments.
Sunday March 15 I will be at Mooroopna Market.

The March markets...

...have had a reasonably good start with Nagambie Lakes Community market and Girgarre market on the same weekend.
Next weekend will be Mooroopna Farmer's and Craft market on Sunday.
Colbinabbin Primary School Annual Market day on Sunday March 22nd.
Merrigum Historical Society Heritage day on Sunday March 29th.
So a market every weekend this month.

Seymour Expo for the first time had reasonable sales considering the weather is still warm/hot and humid at this time of year.

So lots of work to be done.
