The weekend started well, when we stopped in Colac for lunch and discovered a lovely little yarn shop.
I think this will probably turn into a baby surprise jacket.
We stayed in a beach shack, that had a view straight out onto Curdies River:
It was so quiet, and lovely. The place had comfy couches and a good strong heater, and a whole lot of sky. Bliss.
On the Saturday we went to a chocolate maker, and a cheese maker and a yarn maker! Great Ocean Road Woollen Mill are currently officially closed for visitors, , but when I emailed them they said we could come by. They even showed us where the yarn gets made!
I bought a jumpers worth of Purl Code for Leon. So luscious.
There were photographic alpacas, and shy sheep.
The Great Ocean Road is called that for a reason, and it is always stunning, in all conditions:
On the Sunday there was constant rainbows, including the most amazing double bow that started in the mountains and ended in the sea.
The sea that often reflects all my favourite colours - which range from deep teal to light turquoise, and all the shades in between:
The weekend was spent doing the things we love - running, and walking, breathing fresh air, reading book and (for me, not Leon) knitting. In the car on the way home I finished the baby set I cast on in the car on the way out, except the finishing, so I'll get the ends sewn in and the buttons on and take some pics.
Now we're back, and back to business as usual, starting with all important question: What should I knit next?
