Beautiful @Gazza75 
Hi @Maggie @CheerBear @mumto2 @Shaz51 @Faith-and-Hope @Gazza75 @outlander and all crafty friends here. I know I've been a bit absent from here lately and I'm sorry- life has got in the way a bit down here in Melbourne with Covid-19 stuff happening. I have however been looking at the posts so well done everyone on all your crafty and art things👍!
Anyway, I have decided to pick up the knitting needles as a matter of necessity this afternoon because of covid-19 issues happening down here in Melbourne. That being to knit myself a scarf to act as a face covering because as of Thursday, metropolitan Melbourne residents have to wear either a mask or some sort of face covering whenever they leave their residence. A scarf is deemed to be a face covering so my sudden knitting of one. See below of my current status of the scarf. I hope you like it!
There are 2 colours of 8ply acrylic yarn used to make it thick and quicker to knit up. The knitting needles have little AFL footballs at the ends but I don't know what size they are since I got them in a knitting kit for a Brisbane Lions beanie many years ago.

My wool order came today from https://hobbii.com today. I was so excited I have been waiting for over a week. It's a similar design except the pink strands are blue in my wool.
I have my circular knitting needles and all set to start a beanie!
At least it's wasn't like my other order where I order 13 and got 1 ball of wool! According to the website there we're supposed to be 23 designs so really I should have gotten 299 balls of wool. Mis-translation apparently. The quantity was apparently the size. However there was no way to know.
