Hi Patricia! Thanks again for this. Noticing from the picture above that most of the kofter are in variations of grey and white whereas the ones I am seeing on Instagram these days are very colourful. When did this shift happen? (Or was it just coincidence that everyone in your pic is in grey?)

This is only a coincidence. The whole rainbow of colours are represented. Just like today. These people might have been a group, doing a study of a tradition or organising something for their region. Or only using a heritage breed of sheep colours. The line back looks just like today. I’ll post more pics when I can!

Oh, this is just so wonderful to watch! I had a little cry I felt so happy for everyone! I am still on the ‘journey’, like others, and am working on my sleeves. When I need some motivation to keep going, I know I can watch this for some inspiration from all of you amazing ladies. Well done everyone! And congratulations Patricia for your hard work in making it happen. You must be so proud of your knitting ‘flock’! ❤️

Patricia some of us have noticed that interesting gray and white sweater worn by two people near the front in your old kofte parade picture. It has rectangular shapes. Can we get that pattern? Does it have an interesting history? it looks diferent from the others.
