Wow, what a weekend! Many pictures ahead.
\nThe Wollongong Stitch n Bitch group<\/a> exhibition was held at The Old Courthouse in Wollongong, and was a great success! It was well attended, full of gorgeous knitted items and set out beautifully.

\nA general view of the room. Doesn’t the clothesline look great? It was a fantastic way to display the scarves and socks.
\nHere’s a closer view of it.

\nA tiger cub!! Meet baby Bronte, 48 hours old in this picture, who didn’t quite keep Mum from the exhibition! Isn’t she gorgeous? I’m pretty sure she was the star of the show. And obviously, she’s going to be a knitter, and just couldn’t bear the idea of missing the exhibition.
\nSaturday night was spent in some<\/a> wonderful<\/a> company<\/a>. (Husbands and lovely children included)
\nAilsa’s husband cooked an awesome tapas meal, alcohol was consumed (great<\/em> margaritas!) , and all the respective partners learned that they are not alone in their feelings of abandonment when yarn is involved. Knitting was discussed, blogging was discussed, future plans noised about and there was some talk of webrings for blogs by Yarn Widow Husbands.
\nA great (and late) night was had by all, and Sunday morning after breakfast, we headed back to the exhibition to see the cub, and wish Sharon and JT well.
\nThen I dragged DH shopping. More later, when my lovely goodies are delivered on Wednesday.
\nAnd my Dusky Rose yarn arrived today, so the Nundle sweater can continue. Hooray!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
