Lazy Summer Days
at
Mary Jane's TEAROOM
I've been knitting...
and I'm in love with this yarn
It creates such wonderfully smooth stitches
and the blue is the prettiest of blues..
matching our lovely Summer sky here today!
I will be sharing more about my yarn adventures soon...
and I have been having such a lovely time here friends!
 ...doing a little bit of this...
Buying some pretties in Miss CK's  Summer Sale always
makes me very happy!!....
Hmm...an awful lot of this!....
Sitting with a lovely cup of tea on a beautiful Summer's evening
(like this evening as I sit here writing my post!)
chatting and listening to the radio...
It's true...the best things in life are free
Oh...and a little bit of this...
I could spend hours flicking through gorgeous magazines...
(confession... I often do but that's just between us!)
and this one is full of so many nautical lovelies...
too tempting by far...but highly recommended!

MJT News
I had intended to launch our
MJT Summer Giveaway
this weekend everyone....
Alas, I wanted to add a little CK loveliness to my yarny offerings
but I don't think they will arrive until mid-week now
...and so our Giveaway will probably begin next weekend...
Sorry for the delay...
but I know you won't mind because you are such a lovely lot...
and the dancing has already begun here!!
~~~
Hope you have the best of weeks until then
and as always thank you so much for calling by
to see us all here at the tearoom...
We always love your visits!

  2. I am looking forward to seeing your knitted project, Susan and to trying my luck at your summer giveaway too.

    I too have featured a blue yarn (amongst other colours) in my post this evening which I like almost as much as Rooster yarns (a firm favourite of mine). I wonder if it's the same as yours? Although mine contains some cotton and it doesn't look as if yours does...

    Have a lovely evening and Sunday.

  6. Your evening sounds lovely. It's much too hot to sit outside here, but we can picture ourselves on a cool lawn listening to the radio and sipping tea. Have a wonderful weekend.

  12. That gorgeous shade of blue + anything CK are the perfect ingredients for many many lazy Summer days, sweet Susan! I believe we are both enjoying bunches of sunshine and warm weather lately. Let us keep it that way! I am reorganizing my living room, adding lots and lots of blue tones. Have a lovely afternoon and evening o xx o xx o

  14. The yarn looks gorgeous Susan, I wonder if they do a 'flesh' colour that would suit dollies faces, so few yarn producers do unfortunately. Love your blue sky post. Haven't we been lucky this weekend, and so warm as well. The weather will take a turn for the worse tomorrow apparently so I will be in the garden today making the most of the sunshine(I'm already planning what I can knit when it rains tommorow!!) Have a good week. Eli x

  21. I am going to keep a look out for some flesh coloured yarn for you Eli....I know how difficult it is to find...too pink, beige light, dark. It is a real problem isn't it?....x
