The Blairgowrie Beanie
The Blairgowrie Beanie is named for the quaint Mornington Peninsula town about an hour out of Melbourne. Driving down ‘The Pen’ is one of my favourite ways to spend a quiet weekend afternoon, and I’m lucky to live so close to the Peninsula. After months in isolation through Autumn 2020, restrictions finally eased, and so, one sunny yet fresh Saturday afternoon, we ventured down to Blairgowrie for some fish and chips and a walk along the beach. This beanie celebrates things slowly returning to normal.
