Knitting in 2014: May

Another month, another FO.

This one is a surprise for my sister and her husband, who are expecting a baby later this year. I doubt they will come across this so hopefully the surprise will not be spoilt. They'll be getting it when I see them in a few weeks.


This was my first time using yarn from Bendigo Woollen Mills and I was hugely impressed.  It was lovely to knit with and so economical. I bought nine balls of Luxury 10 ply (200g each!) and have almost 2/3 of each left. The colour range is more limited in 10 ply (Luxury also comes in 4 ply, 8 ply and there may be a couple of colours available in 3 ply) e.g. there is no purple and no orange.  Nevertheless, I am happy with the way it turned out and I hope that the Mum and Dad to be will love it too.
