Taralga Show highlights

Last weekend we stopped in to the Taralga Show, one of the district agricultural shows which takes place in the leadup to the big Royal Easter Show (highlights of last year's show described here). In the heart of some of Australia's oldest and best merino country, I was interested to see what the knitting category at Taralga would turn up.

Prize winning fleeces on display

I was not disappointed by this range of baby and child-size jumpers and jackets. All very finely knit on small needles, beautifully seamed and all the rest.

But look what took out the prize for "Best Knitted Article"...

Is that eyelashes I spy with my little eye?
