A Designer Scarf

This is Angora yarn with natural beige and dyed purple wool.

Carolyn bought two skeins of the beige/purple yarn and decided to combine it with eyelash yarn.

The combination gives an interesting texture and look.

At the Portola Valley show, Carolyn shows off the completed scarf; it's very warm, very thick and absolutely gorgeous.

Carol's annual backyard show and potluck lunch is the most anticipated fun show.   It's relaxing and informal and believe it or not, there are 5 judges present.    English Angora goes on the judge Arie's table first thing in the morning while the Jersey Wooly and the American Fuzzy Lop are on different tables.

The English Angora colored senior doe is very impressive.

Summer Wool Party at Carol's

Much anticipated summer potluck and shows at Carol's are held on Saturday.

Carol's yard is beautiful with trees and a gorgeous swimming pool.  Casey and Betty chatting at the Angora corner.   Leslie on the right is observing; Leslie is a retired judging whom we have not seen for a while.  So happy that she decided to visit.

The wool breeds are on three judging stations.   The far right is the Jersey Wooly table, the American Fuzzy Lop are on the middle table and the far left is the Angora table.    

Found on the Net: Find the Bunny

Found this on internet: In this sea of cats, there is one bunny.   According to the accompanying article, people were struggling over it.   Well, I found it in a split second.  It's so easy to find a bunny, it's just natural for a rabbit lover.

Did you find it?
