Beanie Festival Alice Springs

A highlight of my year is teaching at The Beanie Festival in Alice Springs, Central Australia. Oh, what fun we had! This year this quirky creative festival turned over nearly $200,000 and over 4000 beanies were sold. Amazing! Dates for next year, 2019, are  28th 29th, and 30th June . There are usually classes on either side of the festival that you can book into.

I taught some short 2 and 3 hr classes and a full day of hats and one of tea cosies.

The winning Peoples Choice beanie handspun dog hair!
Trying on Beanies..lots of fun! Sandra’s wonderful “Cocky” hat-she is a wonderful artist.
Sometimes you just have to wear your teacosy!
