Maleny Knitfest

Come and gone for another year!

Maleny Knitfest has come and gone for another year and this year really caught tourists attention. The events were extremely well attended, even if the cows in front of Woolworths were a little badly behaved, with some of hiding their woollen knitted coats. One would have thought that with the cooler weather they would have wanted to keep them on. If you know where they his them then please let the kKnitfest committee know.
