And some more squares ...

Regular supporters of WWL, Val and her patchwork group have again donated a pile of squares - 71 in total this time. That is nearly enough for 3 rugs!

On Thursday, we welcomed Caroline back  after a month's holiday. She came bearing a gift - the rug she has knitted from some of the wool bought with our Bendigo Community Bank grant. This is a beautiful rug - knitted all in one piece with Caroline's characteristic creative use of colour.:

As always, the photo doesn't do justice to the depth of the colours in the rug.

Caroline used a clever technique to join the changes of colour - we talked about it in "the tip of the day" an earlier post. With this method, the front and the back of the rug are equally beautiful - in effect there is no "wrong" side.


Which side do you prefer?

We also had a regular supporter of WWL, Dr Noelene  Cappe, call into the group with two rugs she had completed. Noelene's rugs are always bright and cheerful and everyone loves them!

Thank you Noelene - and we look forward to seeing you at the end of year party!
