The Nutcracker Tea Cosy

Christmas Nutcracker decorations are very popular and so enchanting and they were the insperation for The Nutcracker Tea Cosy Knitting Pattern.

The Nutcracker tea cosy is wearing a military uniform of red and gold and on his head he is wearing a crown. His face is true to a Christmas nutcracker with the big teeth, rosy cheeks and curling moustache.

The coat flaps are knitted and then grafted on to the main cosy so that you are holding two knitting needles together in the left hand as you knit across. There are helpful photos throughout the knitting pattern to help and guide you and there is also a helpful Facebook group that you can join if you need further assistance.

The head and crown is worked as one piece using different colour yarns for the face and crown.

It's a delightful tea cosy and really unusual. For people who love Christmas Nutcrackers it's going to be a Christmas must have that will enchant and bring joy for many years to come.
