The pattern for the simple tea cozy is finally finished.Hopefully in the next few days I can get the pattern linked to on Ravelry and Craftsy.
Simple Tea Cozy
Materials
o Bulky weight yarn
o J hook
o Tapestry needle
Stitches used:
o Ch - chain
o Hdc – half-double crochet
NOTES & TIPS:
- Pattern note:
o This pattern was designed to fit a teapot with the spout positioned in the middle of the teapot. The handle is more flexible since that’s the end where to two sides are sewn together.
- Sewing piece together:
o This piece is crocheted flat and then sewn together (leaving a hole to accommodate the handle of the teapot).
o I whip stitched the two ends together, leaving a hole for the handle.
