The “Tea for 2” placemat set is perfect all year round, but a cozy tea time is especially appreciated during the winter months. With this set, you can set a particularly pretty table for yourself and your loved one. Of course, you’ll want to crochet two sets!

The set is crocheted using filet crochet, which isn’t difficult and is explained in detail in the pattern. It’s also suitable for beginners, since it only involves chain stitches and double crochets. There’s a chart for the pattern, but each row is also written out individually.

Tip: This also makes a wonderful gift for people in love, engaged couples, and newlyweds—especially, of course, if they’re tea lovers. Perhaps paired with a few select teas?

This cheerful snowman serves as both decoration and gift wrapping. It’s just the right size for a bottle of sparkling wine, but can also be easily adapted to other bottle sizes. Once the bottle is empty, you can fill it with an LED string of lights. Then the snowman will glow beautifully in the window.
