Thanks for all the fun Dundee Fun A Day!
(It all started off on Hogmanay when somebody handed me a strange object and asked – “What can you do with this? Take it away and have a go!” So my Funaday project was finding out what I could do with a six foot shed skin from a boa constrictor!)
If you want to see what I did come along to the FunADay Exhibition this weekend.
It’s in WASP studios, Meadowmill, West Henderson Wynd, Dundee. The opening night is on Friday 10 February from 7 – 9pm. The Exhibition runs from 10.00am – 7.00pm on Saturday and Sunday.
Here are some photographs I took of the fun I had during the month.

- Experimenting with 4mm hook and DK weight cotton.
- Different ideas, quintuple treble, Irish net grounds, Irish net fill-ins.
- Work vertically or horizontally?
- Been worked up and rattled down a few times before reasonably happy with these two different sides.
- A few problems to solve still.
