I went to the show on Sunday. I’m a bendigonian and live 10 minutes away from the Showgrounds. First time going as a crafter and I found the yarn so beautiful. Currently crocheting a baby blanket for my little girl due in October :)

Agreed in relation to spotlight, they don't even supply sock wool anymore in our store. I feel the same want to buy more Australian wool for future projects. I'm new to your channel. Think Bendigo show will definitely be on my list of things to do next year since we just missed this year unfortunately. Looks awesome, thanks for sharing.

Your post just popped up in my “recommends.” I lived in Heidelburg Vic in the early 90s and have been to both Bendigo (but not to a fiber festival) and Geelong (National Wool Museum). So it was so nice to have my brain tickled with familiar names and places. I live a little north of Rhinebeck and am looking forward to the New York Sheep and Wool Festival there in October. Happy knitting! 🧶

Sitting watching and knitting the Hobart Socks from Kath Martin the mindful Melbourne Maker. 2nd pair. First pair using Colagirl collective self striping fingering sock yarn only used 52 gm paired with lace mohair by Katia a 25gm ball which lasted into the 2nd pair of socks so goes a long way. Love the soft feel of the 2 yarns together more than using a Dk yarn. Glad you both had a great weekend 😊

I don’t think it’s advertised as a sock yarn because it’s 100% wool! I think it’s just at a gauge my friend was comfortable to knit at for socks but I’ll have a look and see if I can find it on the site and link it for you! 🥰

Yes, 4 ply is the same as fingerings. And 5 ply is the same as sport weight. It is confusing because ply (more sensibly) also refers to how many strands are woven together to make the yarn.
