Is that faded brioche? Yes, my friends- it is!

Tea For Two is a collaboration between myself and Heather Pleva of Earl Grey Fiber Company. Heather and I met at a meeting for the Snohomish Knitters Guild and we immediately decided we wanted to work with each other. This shawl is an asymmetrical shape, is a pretty quick knit and uses 3 skeins of fingering weight yarn. The Tea For Two shawl is also a good first project for those who want to learn Brioche knitting and those who want to practice their skills. As you progress you will transition into garter stitch making it a project that holds your interest. I can’t wait to see your Tea For Two Shawl! Use the #teafortwoshawl on social media so we all can admire each others’ work!

Yarn
Yarn used was Earl Grey Fiber Company’s Darjeeling Sock Base. Each skein is 100g and 463 yrds. Note: EGFC’s skeins can be slightly more than 100g- I did my best to not exceed that.

Color A: Nightfall
Color B: Early Morning
Color C: When Doves Cry
Any 3 Fingering (Sock) weight yarns can be used in lieu of the three yarns I used.
