My daughter & I escaped to Bendigo last weekend - we had a fibre-filled day at the Australian Sheep & Wool Show (the 134th year of it!) is where everything sheep and wool is on show...
We had a great time watching the Sheep Dog trials and the sheep judging. There was a petting farm for the kids and a few rides, but mainly for me there were shed-fulls of yarn, fibre suppliers and equipment. We're already plotting our next trip next year!
Miss 6 turned her hand to weaving at a couple of stands and showed quite a flair for it!
We watched a bit of sheep judging... very interesting as they explained why which particular sheep won
We wandered round the fibre/yarn stalls buying some beautiful fibre
More weaving!! Miss 6 is smitten!
Bit of sheep shearing - wouldn't be an Aussie sheep show without it!
Ahhh!
