August is the month of knitting possibly because t August is the month of knitting possibly because the temperature refuses to rise and when the sun shows it’s face it offers nothing more than hope for spring to follow soon. Monthly meeting was a blast. Great show and tell as always. And some wonderful guest speakers - more on that soon. Let us just start by admiring these knitted glories. Technically complex and a delight to see up close. #knitting@winterknitting#knittedclothes#knittedsweater #knittedhat #knitting #autumnvibes🍁 #winteroutfit #wintercollection #winterstyle

One of the extra opportunities for members of ACTT One of the extra opportunities for members of ACTTAA is our weekend workshops. Sometimes information and knowledge shared by a member and sometimes a guest teacher who shares her knowledge with us. While technically this is not a textile, this idea of twisting bamboo and attaching textiles opens a whole world of possibilities! Pretty exciting results. #caneweaving #caneweave #caneweavetechniques #masterclass
Does everyone have old old tin or cigar box they h Does everyone have old old tin or cigar box they have used ‘forever’ to store their bits and bobs. ( incidentally this term is unknown in America!) Just captured a small workspace at our meeting this week. Love the colour shapes and possibilities. Plus a lovely little gift for shoppers at our annual Bazaar during our exhibition. Can’t wait to see you all there. #gifts#feltbird#bitsandbobs#felttoys#feltcraft #feltvessel #feltlove #feltbird
A newish member to ACTTAA, showed us a really amaz A newish member to ACTTAA, showed us a really amazing jumper. A farmer of sheep this member used the wool off the sheep back, washed it. Spun it , dyed it , designed a a pattern and then knitted it. It won a first ribbon , which is exactly what it should have won! Some people worry they are shouldn’t join a group , because they worry there work might not be good enough. But this group is amours for admiring all efforts, a sense of community and sharing each other’s works and passions. This meeting also includes ask a question a sun get an answer. One member bought in a very treasured ring made my a now lost relative. It needed repair and so many ideas flowed for repair and regeneration of an import family treasure. Come along and share the joys of sharing! #knitting #knittersgonnaknit #knitknitknit #spinning #dyingyarn #naturaldyes #creative #creativeknitting
