Pom Pom Garland at Wangaratta Woollen Mill

This Pom Pom Garland is now in the Guiness Book of Records.

"A Guinness Book of Records’ judge was on hand to adjudicate the attempt, which was part of the festivities for Australian Country Spinners 90th birthday celebrations. The final tally was an incredible 6977 pom poms strung in one continuous garland. It took around one hundred people to carry it from the Mill where it was measured, out onto the lawn for display. In addition to all the volunteers, crafters and staff who made pom poms, they were also received from hundreds of school children from all over Australia".

What a mighty effort!  Should we be doing pom-pom garlands as well?
