Tea Rose is going out!

It took ages to this lovely silk-cashmir blend to dry, but now my Tea Rose has been out and about! Yellow was bit tricky to fit to my wardrobe at first, but we managed to find some acceptable company for my Tea Rose.

Looks ok with my blue-gray silk top with white dots and relaxed jeans.

Works surprisingly well with my muted sage green silk skirt.

And makes funny mismatched twinset with my thin taupe merino cardigan. I need to shorten the straps a bit and perhaps I could set some invisible rubber band to ribbing. It relaxed totally during my photoshoot.

Magic Shawl’s Magic Cables are finished ( Wenlan Chia - again - Twinkle’s Big City Knits -book) and some ordinary ribbing with no magic is under construction. This might end up something nice…

Some needle shopping in Vihreä Vyyhti and cup of coffee in Hakaniemen halli really made my day. Rosewood stocking needles on front and yes, you can see my ebony round needles on background!

    The Magic Shawl does not look to be finished? But it does look beautiful!!
    The Twinkle scarves are fabulous and so are the other Twinkle projects you completed.

    No, no, just the cables are finished! I hated to tie those hundreds of knots…

    Thanks for your kind compliments!

    I wonder if you use Big Wool Tuft whether you need the knots.
    I have not read the pattern, but I will look at it. It is one of the patterns I would like to knit when I have more time.

    [...] some of you might even recognize the pattern: Wenlan Chia’s Tea Rose Halter from spring IK. The yellow one has been out and about quite a lot in this [...]
