Hi there!

ShaiWardTea takes its inspiration from a fragrant, delicate tea with a floral character—something to be savoured slowly, cup (and hook!) in hand.

This is not a beginners’ pattern, but I’ve tried to add as much detail as possible and step-by-step pictures for every row.

Yarn & Hook size: For the step-by-step pictures I used Hobbii Twister yarn with a 3.5 mm hook, but you can use whatever yarn & hook size you like, as long as they match and you are happy with the resulting tension
