Two tea cosies

If you know anything about me, you'll know two of my favourite things are crochet and a good cup of tea! So I've made two tea cosies to combine these loves :)


Would you believe I found this little brown teapot on one of my neighbours front walls a while back (they often put things out that they didn't won't anymore, I also got a couple of cute wooden puzzles from them too)! As this is the teapot I use the most (it's a pot for one, I'm the only tea drinker in my house at the moment), I thought I should give it a special Debbie Kiddle inspired cosy. I made up the pattern as I went along, I'm rather pleased with my efforts! 


My parents have a love of teapots too, but as far a I remember they were going to give this gorgeous plan red one to charity, but that wasn't going to happen with me around!
I made up this pattern too, with some cotton yarn I had left over from another project. I m really pleased with it! I wasn't sure about the over sized Pom Pom at first but a few people have associated it with my Afro, loving that link so it's staying!

I'm aiming to make a cosy for all my teapots, of which there are rather a lot! I hope to write up the patterns and share them with you!
