Updated Knitting and Crocheting Data Cards for Fair Exhibits

Fiber Arts Knitting Data Card.jpg

Nebraska 4-H has updated the required supporting information for each Knitting and Crocheting level 2 & 3 exhibit entered at county and state fairs. Updated data card files can be found at https://go.unl.edu/ne4hknitting-crocheting, and is linked at https://lancaster.unl.edu/4h/fair#static. If someone accidently submits the slightly different questions listed in the Lancaster County 4-H & FFA Fair Book, it will not count against them at county fair, but if their exhibit is selected for State Fair, they will be asked to complete and include the updated Data Card.

No supporting information is needed for Knitting or Crocheting level 1 exhibits at county fair.
