Coastal Crafts Handmade Markets (CCHM) - Albion Park

I have been very busy knitting for the next CCHM on 28 July at Centenary Hall, Albion Park. As I will be in America my Mum is going to do the stall for me. Good on ya Mum, you are the best.

My mum liked my fingerless gloves I had on the other day, so I have knit her a pair which I will give to her this week when I visit Mum and Dad before my holiday, and take the last of the knitted items for the markets to her.

I also this week did another beanie for my grand-daughter as she saw me knitting them last week and asked for one the same.

I am really looking forward to returing to America for a holiday and it will be summer there, added bonus to get away from cold weather this winter for a few weeks. I am not going to where I really wanted to go on this trip which was the east coast in autumn, but we are visiting some favourite places from last trip and will be going to Sturgis Bike Week while in South Dakota, the main reason for the trip. I have my Knit Picks wish list already to go so I can get it delivered to a motel while there, only 6 more sleeps.

Knitting below is what I have been doing the past few weeks for the CCHM stall and the last photo is a pair of Fetching fingerless gloves for my Mum in grey acrylic, wool, alpaca blend with an extra cable row (I like them a bit longer on the fingers).
