Shetland Herring Girls Tea Cosy

Knit your own woolly tribute to the Shetland Herring Girls with this fabulous 7 page tea cosy knitting pattern.

These two herring girl tea cosy designs are inspired by history and celebrate the work and achievements of herring girl workers that drove the fishing industries in Shetland.

The two cosies are very similar with only their working tools differing. They are wearing heavy duty aprons because gutting fish is a messy job, and on their heads they are wearing head scarves.

They both have a cat close by. I bet the local cat population loved hanging around the harbour with all those tasty fishes about.

The tea cosies is knitted with double thickness yarn to keep the teapot and the tea really hot.

The pattern will be available for digital download as soon as you have completed purchase, so you could start knitting them, very soon!

This product is the knitting pattern only to make your own Shetland Herring Girls tea cosies.
