knitting, other people's craft

knitted by Grandma

As you know, I don’t knit.  I can, but I don’t.  Why would I, when my Mum still knits such lovely items for her grand-daughters?

This lovely cardi/jacket pattern is from Shepherd Moda Issue 6. Mum knitted it in Bendigo Woollen Mills 8ply Luxury, in the colours pink and koala (which Clare chose). I love the lacy edging and the textured body and sleeves.

Stella loves to be a part of the action! This is a little large for Clare, but is still quite wearable and will be for the next few years. Thanks to Mum for her generosity and wonderful knitting skills!
