Criss-Cross Tea Cosy

This quirky tea cosy will dress your teapot up and keep your tea toasty warm.

It can be made in two or three colours, or even more. It is a great stash buster and is the perfect knit to gift. The main section is made up of four square motifs worked in rounds from the centre out. The instructions include detailed photos of the steps to begin the motif. The moss stitch sections are worked in rounds along the top and bottom edges of the motifs. The top section is finished with a band of K1, P1 rib through which an i-cord tie is threaded. The i-cord tie may be knotted at the ends or small pompoms added.

It requires intermediate knitting skills and comes in two sizes.
