In the process of binding off Rose of England, a design by Marianne Kinzel. I'm knitting the 'tea' sized, but as a shawl.
A Rose/Raspberry (in natural light it's an 'Old rose' shade) of Douceur et Soie; size 6 US needles.
14 of the 50 motifs cast off at this point.
Picture attached.

This design is technically a tablecloth - the "tea" size is for a tea table and is only 150 rows; the full size is 200 plus rows and much much larger. (Kinzel has several pattrns where she does something similar)
*BUT* for a tablecloth of either size you'd be working on much smaller needles then I'm using.

What a great colour. I, also am not familiar with 'tea' sized.

What is the tea sized? Not sure what that means. And what is the regular size? I'm assuming it's larger. Is it not a shawl as well?
