Description from MagKnits.com:

I was finishing the first of these gloves on a beautiful, but nippy autumn evening on my friend Mary’s deck. She offered some tea so that we could prolong our outside knitting time without being frozen to the bone. As we waited for the water to boil, I glanced down and saw that we would soon be sipping Tua Cha. It was delicious and equally fun to tell my boyfriend later that night that Mary had served me up some outstanding Tua Cha. He said, “You were burning up?” I guess in Africa, Tua Cha will burn you up. The meaning was a little unclear, but the warmth was not. No matter how you slice it, on any continent, Tua Cha must mean heat. So when you’re knitting at the bus stop in February, begging Mother Nature for spring, pull these on and they’ll be sure to help.
