As we hurtle quickly towards the end of Desert Bus 2022, we are hurtling even quicker towards the end of these silent auctions! They close at 2am PST, so don't miss out! Bid today!

Up first, a Double-Knit Lace Shawl, donated by 3geek14!

Triangle shaped lace shawl, decorated with a purple and white feather pattern

This double-knit, lace shawl has a little over a 5 foot wingspan and weighs 440g (just under a pound). The yarn is 40% merino wool, 40% mulberry silk, and 20% bamboo viscose. As a double-knit item, it has two layers of fabric which link at the colour transitions, and it's reversible to suit your preference. The air trapped between the layers will help keep you warm in this very cozy shawl. In total, this shawl took me 152 hours and 23 minutes to knit.

Current high bid is $2250

Next up, a Star Trek quilt, donated by crafter Quilting Bee!

Blue quilt, with a original series Star Fleet insignia in the middle. Quilt is spread over a queen size bed.

A queen sized all cotton quilt, 75 x 102" (that's 190 x 260cm); top side is dark blue with a silver Star Trek insignia/"A" centered, quilted in navy blue horizonal lines; backing a vari-colored, mostly blue, gas cloud in a navy section of space; bound with thin black border. Because who doesn't want to sleep under a regulation, standard issue Enterprise quilt??

Current high bid is $2900.42
