Strawberries are such a delicious summer fruit that I wanted to design a tea cosy with a strawberry theme and I came up with the Devonshire Strawberry Picker Tea Cosy.

The lady is dressed in old style clothing of the era, a big dress and a mop hat, and she is wearing an apron to protect her dress, whilst she’s out picking strawberries.

She has a basket of strawberries and she has picked another to add to the basket. The strawberries are cute, and you can either paint or embroider the yellow seeds onto them.

The frill on the tea cosy is attached to the main cosy part by knitting stitches from two needles together, this means that the bottom of the cosy remains stretchy. If the frill were sewn on, it would feel more restrictive when pulling the cosy over the teapot.

She’s a lovely summery tea cosy and perfect for people who love strawberries, pick your own farms or Devon cream teas!

The pattern is a 7 page pattern which is easy to follow and has helpful photos to guide you.

The Devonshire Strawberry Picker tea cosy fits a medium sized teapot that covers a Teapot that holds 6 to 8 cups or 2 pints.

The pattern will be available for digital download as soon as you have completed purchase, so you could start knitting her very soon!

This product is the knitting pattern only to make your own Devonshire Strawberry Picker tea cosy.
