Peppermint Tea Shawl

So here I am, two hours into my latest enterprise – I’m taking part in a CAL by Black Sheep Wools making a shawl designed by the talented Lisa Cook of Lisa’s Attik. I had thought originally of a cake by Crochet_uk.co.uk but it wasn’t turning out as I wished, probably because the original pattern has been made with a Sheepjes Whirls and the Twister I have here is a similar yarn – twisted and not simply 4-ply. I am more than a little sorry because I am still looking for a great pattern for the Winchester cake, but this is not it I guess. Moreover, this Twister cake I have recently bought reminds me of the colours of tea (not the peppermint one though! more a lemon-y one I guess) and I reckon it’s appropriate. Stay with me to see how it turns out!
