Yesterday, I ran across this book which looks delightful!
This, along with cold winter days causes me to think about making a tea cozy. Crocheted like the one above?...., or knitted????
These tea cozy are images for inspiration.....
Some free patterns are available on the Internet. I will probably do the one below, without the flowers!
So cute for the season!
And finally, the cutest ever....following the current cupcake craze...
*********************************************************************************
More on "granny chic"......for a dramatic, glamorous granny.....a jeweled spider!
(Found on Amazon )
Easy, peasy, not glamorous, frocks.......from Dottie Angel....who has an ETSY shop, a blog and a book...
These soft dresses tempt me, speak to my heart, which loves retro, cozy domesticity!!!! I almost want to start sewing some from my fabric stash!
But, this is a look I have tried before....here, when grandaughter Lilia was playing with her rain gear....Mr. P snapped this great photo....with granny-aproned Grandma Lila looking on....
Is this the fashion statement I want to project?......hmmm
Reality vs. fantasy, LOL!!!
But I might still read the book!
And I have made a crocheted granny square afghan!
and I finished a cardigan from Madelinetosh DK wool in "Esoteric" (color way) which I started in the Denver Airport on a layover....Sunday Dec. 1st. For my beautiful daughter-in-law who lives in all cold climate...now off to mail it, and the alpaca brown scarf for my son!

I love the tea cozies and I know you will make a unique one. I wear a smock type apron quite often and it sure doesn't look very 'stylish' on me. But I know we look 'young' for our age...and feel even younger! Have fun!
Oh - I was going to say knitted stripe - then saw knitted polka dot - then knitted cupcake - oh I love them all. Looks like a very fun book.
