I do like Scandinavian Design and stranded Knitting Patterns.

Living in Australia, I was getting a bit tired of all the reindeer featuring on hats, and thought, I should come up with a more fitting theme for down under!

So I chose the beautiful, stunning Red Kangaroo, mixed in a few Eucalyptus leaves, and created this beanie pattern!
I hope you like it.
