This is a slip-over style cosy which covers the entire pot, and the linen (sometimes referred to as woven) stitch makes the texture dense and firm helping the tea to stay piping hot. The pattern is worked in rows of random colour making is an ideal project for using up oddments of double knitting. Finishing touches are a beaded handing loop and an embroidered ‘tea bag’ decoration.

This project is suitable for those with average crochet skills.
