National Wool MuseumRibbon
Presented to Joyce Hucker for objects entered in the Australian Sheep Breeders' Association 1972 Show. Hucker began working with unspun wool and making dyes from the natural sources from her garden and the farm trees around her. From knitting and croceting articles, she progressed to felting and a 'wrapping' technique, always using unspun wool. She was a successful exhibitor at many craft shows and was always willing to pass on her experience and knowledge to others, often travelling widely to help groups requiring a demonstration.Presented to Joyce Hucker for items entered in the Australian Sheep Breeders' Association 1975 Show.Australian Sheep Breeders' Assn, 1975 Showagricultural shows, hucker, mrs joyce -
