With the decline in the UK Bee population, I couldn’t resist designing this sweet Beehive / Honey Pot Tea Cosy knitting pattern to remind us all to plant more flowers and shrubs in our gardens to attract our lovely Bees. What a wonderful gift this would make for a Bee enthusiast or for someone special who loves all things cute!
