Knitting Pattern and Tea in Candlelit Guelph Bedroom

A printed knitting pattern lies flat on a wooden surface, its text and diagrams visible beneath the soft glow of a nearby candle. Beside it sits a ceramic cup filled with pale chamomile tea, steam rising faintly in the cool pre-dawn air. The room is dim, illuminated only by the candle's warm flicker and the muted blue light filtering through a window. Shadows stretch quietly along the walls, deepening the sense of early morning stillness. Late summer lingers outside, hinted at by the faint green of leaves visible through the glass. The shallow depth of field blurs the background, leaving the paper texture and the liquid surface in sharp focus. One droplet of condensation rests on the side of the cup.
