Man oh Man Jimmie Lu! Congratulations!!!!! I entered Cal Expo (California's big state fair) the first time about 20 years ago and I entered a crocheted afghan, didn't qualify for exhibit, a crocheted sweater, missed by one point for qualifying for exhibit, a loaf of bread, missed by 5 points for exhibit and a sewn stuffed animal dog that won 2nd place and $20.00...I was over the moon...

 

I can only imagine how you feel. Congrats again!

Totally WOW

[Jimmie Lu]

You know our community is small and this fair is a huge event. when we registered not many others entered crocheted items but what really impressed the fair comittee was my daughter entered a crocheted hat and a knitted one they both won 1st place in the JR division. Not many young people crochet anymore.

Darski I love your signature line

It took me 60 years to enter my first county fair ...... I don't know what took me so long! I love hearing county fair stories and about all the ribbons.

 

CROCHET ON!!!

Holey cow! Where'd you find time to do all that stuff?

Fun winning ribbons. I got a kick out of mine even though i was the only entry in the "whittled hook from crick wood by fogies" division.

Congratulations on your much more meaningful wins.
