Woolcraft Awards

Nelson area awards in the 1972 National Co-ordinating Country Women's Woolcraft competitions were made recently. The most successful competitor was Mrs J. Ryan of Waimea West who won two first placings. The contest is arranged by the co-ordinating committee of the C.W.I and W.D.F.F. in cooperation with the Wool Board which provides the prizes. National finals will be held next month for area section winners.
