Adelaide and Delia

Meet Adelaide and Delia! Transplanted from Australia via USA ;-D Ready to make their new home in England and cheer on Stoke City Football Club! Pattern is kangaroo and baby roo from Toys to Knit by Tracey Chapman. Made from stash of mostly Sidar wool-rich 4-ply, Jaeger Matchmaker Merino 4-ply and Regia sock yarn. Knit on size 2 needles which is different than pattern. And yes, baby Delia does come out (no.1 question I'm asked...well besides "You knit that?" which is more an expression of shock than a question anyway).

Here they are with the other members of the family. That's Viola on the left and Dewey, known to the locals as Doogie, The Air Canada Bear, not to be confused with Paddington Bear, on the right. Geeze what a sentence!
