Hi there!

PaiMuTan is light and delicate, with a soft touch and elegant fragrance. Here’s a blanket that will warm you like a nice cup of white tea!

This is not a beginners’ pattern, but I’ve tried to add as much detail as possible and step-by-step pictures for every round. Keeping the stitch count is really important with this kind of project, so I’ve added the stitch count to every round as well.

Yarn & Hook size: For the step-by-step pictures I used Hobbii Friends Extra Fine Merino with a 3mm hook, but you can use whatever yarn & hook size you like, as long as they match and you are happy with the resulting tension
