Strawberry lemonade

I don't know what this 4 ply hazelknits yarn is going to become,  but between 3 and 4 am this morning it somehow ended up in a tidy ball....

It's probably about time it jumped on the needles considering it was a birthday gift from mum a couple of years ago. What to do with 800 yards of it?

Melbourne

I had an amazing and busy 3 days in Melbourne.  What an amazing city. Here are the photos.  I spent a lot of time just walking the streets,  looking at the architecture and street art (and offspring location stalking). I loved Fitzroy.

Other highlights were the Monet waterlily exhibition, watching King Kong the musical, having a drink or two at the gin palace, the Queen Victoria market, Cooks Cottage, the view from the highest skyscraper and of course going to a couple of yarn stores. Pretty much the whole trip was a highlight!

I kept costs down staying in the YHA.  Enjoy the pictures.  Hopefully I'll be back there next year for Les Miserables!
