From the time of Tom Baker and even before that, scarves have always been the key to an outfit.
Teamed with the bleakest of ensembles, a jaunty scarf is a happening way of saying “Hey folks, I’m colourful, I’m madcap. Anything could happen here, (etc)”. Craft Victoria is, of course, the hand-made hub and this annual festival is dedicated entirely to the hand-making of scarves.
Starting tomorrow, there will be workshops, forums, exhibitions and knitting circles. But the main event is the Scarf Market Exhibition, where you can check out all the entries in the Scarf Awards, try the scarves on and buy them too. (Mental note: keep an eye out for the entry entitled ‘Spin Masta’ – what it lacks in warmth, it makes up for in bling).
Pop into Craft Victoria or email scarf2007@craftvic.asn.au for program details.
