Loopy Loopy Tea Cosy

This is really the sock knitters tea cosy. It is knitted on a set of four needles from the top down. Neatly enclosing the tea pot with clever little openings for the spout and the handle. The loops are all knitted separately as “I Cords” and the held until you are ready to knit them in with the result being a bit like a tubby hedgehog. A cute picot edging finishes off the top band of ribbing. This tea cosy was knitted in Debbie Bliss Fine Donegal and I think it gives a lovely textural look with the flecks of colour which are then picked up in the loops.
