The picture below is from the Lion Brand yarn catalog. When I saw the pink and green Nancy Meier tea cosy I loved it, even though I would never have chosen these colors on my own. And, I sent for the pattern {here}...2 years ago...
So, I'm especially happy that it is finally finished and fits my 4 cup brown betty teapot perfectly...Pattern::Nancy Meier's Tea Cosy from Lion Brand Yarn
Yarn Used::Lion Wool #132 Lemongrass & #140 Rose {1 skein each for 4 cup size}
Needles::Pair of size 5 {3.75mm} straight needles

Here's a new recipe I tried for Pumpkin Chip cookies ~ perfect with a cup of tea.
1 cup butter, softened::1 cup sugar::1 egg::1 tsp vanilla::1 cup canned pumpkin::2 cups flour::1 tsp baking powder::1 tsp baking soda::1 tsp cinnamon::1/2 tsp salt::1 cup dark chocolate chipsCream butter and sugar, mix in wet ingredients, mix in dry ingredients.

ReplyDeleteThe tea cozy looks adorable.
ReplyDeleteThe tea cozy is just adorable. I love it. And the cookies...I am so hungry right now and they look so gooD!!
ReplyDeleteI wish we could get canned pumpkin in Australia pumpkin pie just doesn't taste the same with the pumpkins we have here. But daisyboy11 will be 12 on Friday(Halloween) so i need to make one for dessert - as I do every year.

How beautifully created - the whole vignette - only you have nicer handwriting ;) Vicki K
ReplyDeleteI love the tea cozy! I have a pumpkin teapot (and sugar bowl and creamer to match) and I've been wanting to knit up a cozy for my tea pot for when I'm sitting out in the sun room knitting and sipping my tea. Don't want it getting cold on me. That one is adorable! I could make one in brown/orange to match my teapot! :)
ReplyDeleteAnd I was planning to make a pumpkin bread tomorrow, but now I'm thinking about those cookies! YUM!!!!!
I love the tea cozy, and now I'm hungry! ;-)
ReplyDeleteoh so cute!
ReplyDeletelove it!
Deb, the tea cozy is adorable! Beautiful. Thanks for sharing. I love your blog :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely tea cosy; I also love the quote from William Henry Channing you featured a few days ago which I found via Queen of the Froggers - thanks for sharing that.
ReplyDeleteGreat cosy!
ReplyDeleteI am tempted by the pumpkin cookies in a serious way.
That is really cute! Looks like it will work well, too :)
ReplyDeleteI love tea cozies! I'm glad you liked the recipe.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the wonderful pumpkin cookie recipe. It is as moist and soft as a pumpkin cake and I used white chocolate chips, as I think they are nicer with pumpkin. Everyone loves these cookies! And I love your blog.
ReplyDeleteI am trying the recipe tonight! Lovely! You mean pumpkin as opposed to pumpkin pie mix, right? Thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteMy goodness- we must have a connection! What a small world it really is. I am constantly surprised by how interconnected we all are. Those cookies are the best- my neighbor gave me the recipe and it was her mother's before that. I've been making them every week and munching away as I drink tea and enjoy the fall. Did it snow where you are yesterday? We got little flurries here and there-Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteLove the cozy Deb!!! The goodies look great too. Glad your knitting more!!
ReplyDeleteThis is soooo Cute love it ~~
ReplyDeleteOh you take me back - the pink and green tea cozy is exactly like the ones my grandmother used to knit!
ReplyDeleteDeb,
ReplyDeleteI have to thank you for the recipe. My sister is 13 years younger than I am and this afternoon I decided to teach her to make cookies - we used your recipe and they were delightful. Perfect for her first baking experience! Thank you!
Dear Deb,
ReplyDeleteYour tea cozy is beautiful!!! Thank you for sharing the recipe. Your cookies look yummy!
Love, Paula
I just found your blog and I LOVE it! You are very talented! My son and I are dying to try the pumpkin chip cookies! Thanks for sharing your recipe. I'll let you know how it goes. Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteThat tea cozy is the same one from the Bedknobs and Broomsticks film!
