The Afternoon Tea hat features a cabled motif on a field of reverse stockinette, intended to create a graphic element that highlights the beauty of a hand dyed yarn.

The flecks of indigo in the speckled Kokon Bleu yarn remind me of the cornflower petals found in some teas, like the Gracia blend I enjoyed in Barcelona years ago. The heaviness of the Aran weight is extra warm and cozy, like a good cup of tea on a cold, grey afternoon.

You will need approximately 160 yards of Aran weight yarn.

Afternoon Tea is also available on Ravelry
