Someone recently commented to me 'that nothing beats a handknitted tea cosy for keeping your tea warm but they are so daggy'! Well this sent me on a quest to come up with a knitted tea cosy that looked modern enough to fit any decor. While I had an idea in my head it wasn't until I was browsing my favourite tea cosy book Really Wild Tea Cosies** that I found exactly the base I was after. Tweaked it to get the look I was after and my modern knit tea cosy was born.
Black garter stitch base is folded into a sculpted shape and a scarlet red flower with vintage button* added for interest, made totally out of pure wool and is designed to fit my 2 - 4 cup teapot, which is the basic size of most teapots. However I can make this to fit any sized teapot and in any colour of your choice. Any embellishment can be added, maybe a flower or shape, always up to a challenge.
*vintage button may vary to the one pictured.
**Really Wild Tea Cosies is a beautiful book by Loani Prior and I thank her for giving me permission to use her idea for the base of the cosy.
