Know Your Tea

Nine panels, nine puns on tea: a brick teapot for builder's tea, a grey-haired gentleman for Earl Grey, a camel for camel-mile, a gingerbread house for ginger tea. A sampler to read as much as to look at, at home in a kitchen or a tea room and a good gift for anyone who never skips their cuppa.

It is worked from the chart on white Aida: full crosses for the blocks of colour, back stitch for the outlines and the lettering, French knots for the small details. The threads are pre-sorted and included; you will also want a hoop or frame and small scissors, and a frame can be chosen once the stitching is done.
