NoonChaiTea Blanket

**Hi there!** NoonChaiTea has an original construction that makes every step of the journey as enjoyable as the finished piece. Its lacey design is perfect for color play, while its light, airy fabric makes it especially beautiful when worked in cotton yarn, creating a blanket that's as fresh and vibrant as it is unique. 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. **Yarn & Hook size**: For the step-by-step pictures I used Hobbii Friends and Hobbii Rainbow Cotton 8/4 yarn with a 4mm hook, but you can use whatever yarn & hook size you like, as long as they match and you are happy with the resulting tension **Gauge**: 18 dc and 10 rounds in 10 cm **Difficulty**: intermediate **Terminology**: US terms **Materials required:** • Hobbii Friends 8/4 cotton and/or Hobbii Rainbow Cotton 8/4 (3700 meters, divided in any number of assorted colors) or any equivalent cake yarn (see color guide below) • 4 mm crochet hook • Tapestry needle to sew ends • Scissors **Stitches used in this pattern:** • Slip stitch (sl st) • Chain (ch) • Single crochet (sc) • Half double crochet (hdc) • Double crochet (dc) • Treble crochet (tr) • Front post single crochet (fpsc) • Back post single crochet (bpsc) • Front post double crochet (fpdc) • Back post double crochet (bpdc) • Puff stitch (see below) • Popcorn stitch (see below)) **Other abbreviations:** • Ch-sp: chain space • Sk st: skip stitch
