Notes

The top is Bells & Mexicans from Really Wild Tea Cosies by Loani Prior and the base is 1937 floral tea cosy by Madame Weigel.

I knitted the base on 1 set of circular needles and didn’t join in the round and begin using the 2nd set until I began decreasing for the top.

The base is knitted with 2 contrasting strands of 4 ply - Hot pink and Blue/purple.
