Tea time
The cozy ...
... and the teapot.
Will it be Darjeeling, or Earl Grey?
I'm waiting for snow. Since I'm waiting, it won't happen. I'm tired of too-warm temperatures and damp, heavy air. It's January, and it's not supposed to be like this. Today is cold and the clouds have been building. There's hope yet.
Knitting continues on the Kureyon socks and the Japanese Vines scarf. Progress has been made, but I don't need to show the same two pieces again, do I? I've finished half of the second sock and a little more than half of the scarf. In a few days I'll be ready to think about the next new thing, or maybe this is the time to finish some of the things I've been neglecting.
I'll be hanging around the house for a couple of days this week, recovering from another -- I can't type it -- isdom-way ooth-tay ing-thay. This will be the last, but it's the lead-in to the next part of a long process. Will I still have readers after I spend the next six months alluding to frightening dental procedures? I'll try to spare everyone the details, but the end result will be a happier and healthier Jane. That, and the extra knitting time I'll get when I have to take a sick day here and there, makes it worth it.

Sweet Jane,
Honey, you will always have many readers & you will always have many fans. I'm in both of these camps ^ .. ^
Love the tea cozy & the tea pot it fits over - both are pretty.
Much luck w/ the ooth-ay stuff. Extra Vitamin C helps the health of your gums & your overall health. (Am a former dental hygienist.)
Lotsa XOXO to you & Annabelle.
Hopefully the dental stuff goes smoothly!
Lovely tea cozy. :)
Pretty tea cozy and tea pot (and cups, too!) I hope all goes well with the ouchy stuff.
That's such a nice tea pot and cozy! I hope all of the dental stuff goes smoothly. Either way, we'll still be here.
Earl Grey!
I too, Jane, am wanting snow. Last time they made this prediction for "measurable" snow my good friend had driven down from RI and decided to head home based on the forecast. NOTHING happened... either here or there ... so I am so skeptical of their predictions at this point.
Fingers crossed!
P.S. you inspired me (or enabled) me to order yarn from String Theory for a vine scarf ...
Hi Jane,
I am still an avid reader of your blog and admire all that you accomplish. Good luck with the dental stuff and enjoy (hopefully) some time off to knit.
How is Rachel? What is she up to since graduation? We miss her at the museum. Please pass along a big hello.
Mary Anne
so glad that you got a teapot to adorn that truly beatufiul cosy you made :-)
may I join you for a cuppa ??
I wish I was closer to come and make it for you, since itting-say ith-way eople-pay is the best ing-thay when you and urting-hay.
(pig latin... too cute... I guess it dates us.) I sure hope that you are uch-may etter-bay OON-SAY
I think knitting socks and other things must be the best way to take ones mind off WT type interuptions. All the best, and fingers crossed for quick get betters. That is one stylish tea pot and cozy,
Glad this is the last of the isdom-way ooth-tay removals. Yikes. That's a big deal, even though it seems like it isn't.
Your tea cozy is incredible! Truly exquisite! Wow!
Ooh, ick. Hate the dentist (wouldn't it just be a drag to be a dentist sometimes?). Hope it goes well, quickly and as painlessly as possible, and that you feel better really soon.
Lovely cozy, too!
Hugs, Jen
Pretty! Green is always good.
Good luck with the tooth thing. Getting rid of mine made for so many less migraines. I hope your results are equally wonderful.
Now I am mad to knit a tea cozy. And get a teapot, especially one as awesome as yours.
Good luck the dentist.
Oh, I hope you are soon feeling lots better. Your tea cozy is just wonderful.
Oh Jane, that teapot is stunning! And the cups too. The cozy is now complete - and I love thinking of you at home sipping tea and progressing on your "ental-day ourney-jay to ellness-way." I'll hold good isdom-way ooth-tay thoughts for you. You WILL get there and you will feel so much better - and we'll all be here to support you along the way.
What a cozy setting for escaping from winter, recovering from dental work & just sitting & knitting! :)
JANE: Hope you're on the mend. I have a Horrible History with the isdom-way eeth-tay. Long ago but vivid.
But I must know if that is a Bee House teapot, as the lid would suggest. I haven't seen a fluted one like that. COVET! So cool with your cozy. If you build it (cozy) it will come (teapot). xox Kay
Love it, Jane...I just love it!
