Green Tea

While I can’t promise that wearing a Green Tea shawl will provide the same health benefits as sipping a warm cup of tea, I can guarantee that this beautifully designed accessory will be a stunning addition to your wardrobe. With a delightful array of leaves elegantly popping from a reverse stockinette background, this gentle crescent-shaped shawl is sure to please even the most discerning knitters and fashion enthusiasts.

The Green Tea shawl is a charming and versatile crescent-shaped pattern that allows you to showcase your knitting skills. To create this beautiful piece, you’ll need approximately 300-400 meters of dk weight yarn and a pair of needles that will provide you with a lovely, lacy effect. This shawl pattern can easily be customized and enlarged by adding additional repeats, making it perfect for knitters of all levels who want to create a unique and personal accessory.

For my sample, I used 1 skein of Wollmeise Merino DK in the stunning Petersilie colorway, which is composed of 100% merino wool and boasts an impressive yardage of 468 yards (428 meters) per 200 grams. I knitted it using 4 mm (US 6) needles, resulting in a beautifully blocked size of 44 x 140 cm (17 x 55 inches). The gauge for this pattern is 13 stitches and 26 rows per 10 cm in the established pattern, ensuring that your shawl comes out looking just as intended.
