Isolation Compensation Bunting !

This weekend lots of members of my facebook group have been knitting ISOLATION COMPENSATION Bunting!

Isolation Compensation Bunting
This was my latest Mystery Knit - no name, no description .... no-one knew what they were making. 
They just followed the instructions and hopefully had a good time! 

I hoped that a fun project would cheer us all up a little in these difficult times.
It is hard to be socially isolated! I miss my family so much! 

Thank goodness we have our crafting to help us through! 

Here are some of the lovely results ~
