WHAT’S MORE ENCHANTING THAN A CHILD’S TEA PARTY? Inspired by the simple style of her Fiesta ware dishes, Annie Modesitt designed this colorful cup, saucer, creamer, sugar bowl, pitcher, and plaid placemat for a little princess of imagination. Except for the placemat, all the pieces begin with the same circular base, so the set is a whole lot easier to knit than you might think.
