It's ages since I have done any broomstick lace. It's been fun making this blanket with the big needle which represents the broomstick and crochet hook. Just need to add a fringe.

Had a lovely day out on Friday at the Woolfest near Cockermouth. There was lots of fleeces, wool and fibres. Lots of things to feel and touch. I bought a bag of wensleydale locks, just lovely to look at, feel and touch, then put back in the bag until I decide what to do with them.

Poppies always are a good source of inspiration for my textile work.
