Tea Stands for Tuesday 3/5/19


Hello friends.  It is wonderful to check in with you every Tuesday.  I can't thank out hostess Elizabeth enough.  Be sure to visit her blog.  

Tuesday is the one day of the week I try to get a blog post together.  I used to be a pretty regular blogger but life changes.  I hope to get back to it sometime soon. 





Here you see my glass of water and breakfast.  Well, half the plate was for me and half for DH.  I usually have yogurt and fruit but this morning I was in the mood to cook.

I have spent quite a bit of time knitting this winter.  I'm making the shawl pictured here.  Vogue pattern, Rowan Kidsilk Haze yarn



The patterned part is called a mosaic slip stitch.  Can you see those tiny lengths of yarn?  Like knitting cobwebs.

I'll be visiting everyone soon and knitting in the meanwhile.

  2. It must be like knitting with spider web! Beautiful - I haven't seen that mosaic pattern and think it's very nice. Will look forward to seeing it when it's finished. The breakfast looks wonderful - but for lunch...I am a toast and coffee breakfast person for the most part.

  4. Your breakfast looked delicious. And that shawl will be beautiful once it's done. I don't know how you can work with such thin threads, though. (I know I couldn't, and I'd go blind.) Happy T-Day!

  6. I LOVE avocados, so that breakfast looks good to me, too. I also like the colorful plate and glass you used. They scream summer to me.

    That knitting yarn is beautiful, but I agree with Ardi about the yarn looking like spider webs. It will be insanely beautiful when you are finished.

    Thanks for sharing your knitting, your breakfast, and your water with us for T this Tuesday. I hope you WILL be able to blog more often soon.

  7. Wow, those are tiny web like strands of yarn. I can crochet, but for some reason, knitting was always difficult for me. I love avocados!
    Happy T Day!

  12. That looks like a healthy breakfast although I cannot really make out what it is. (I only recognise the avocados).
    That shawl looks utterly beautiful. What a labour of love that is! Such fine yarn and intricate pattern. Wow. It will take a lot of time and patience. But it will be lovely and also cozy when you get to wear it.
    Happy T-Day,
    Lisca

  17. My goodness, what a beautiful shawl! I don't think I'd have the patience to knit, and deal with yarn like cobwebs. So I always miss out on the beautiful knitwear. Enjoy your weekend!
