Tea cosy unveiled

It's been a while. Some time back I finished a tea cosy for a friend whose tastes are hard to fulfil when it comes to standard knitting patterns. After wondering if I had to design a teacosy myself, good old Ravelry came to the rescue and I spent a weekend guessing Hollie's teapot dimensions.



She likes it, and Master 7 has ordered one for Hallow'een next year! A bit of fun. Pattern is from here for the skull and crossbones and here for the shaping, blended together. I added a cuff just for something extra, although it hardly needs embellishment!

Day 12 Blogtoberfest

I have just had a relaxing weekend away with 5 wonderful friends, eating, sleeping, crafting, walking, drinking, eating, relaxing, knitting, chatting, eating, talking, laughing, and reminiscing. I always find that being with old friends is like a favourite outfit, a warm hug; the familiarity and warmth just what I needed.

I am refreshed and ready for finishing my current knitting project so I can show you. It's one of my new favourite items - a crazy teacosy! Do you have a tea cosy? Do you have one, or several? I'm thinking there may be a tea cosy giveaway if I can get cracking... will keep you informed.
