Crochet Crew's Kiwiana Pavlova Tree at the Meteor

Alison from Frankton

Those crocheters have been at it again over the last 6 weeks and have created a frothy pavlova christmas tree as an entry in the Trees at the Meteor show in Hamilton. About 14 of the Crochet Crew were involved in making either lilies or waffle shaped pieces to create the white base, and black lacy decorations with a multitude of Kiwiana icons like cockroaches, kia ora, fences, wooden clothespegs, black sun umbrelas attached, not to mention the eruption of putiputi (woven flax flowers)as a volcanic topknot! Trees at the Meteor is open from 7pm - 10pm, 14 -19 December, there is an admittance charge.
