A fun, easy Sunflower Tea cosy Pattern to brighten any day.
It will stretch to fit a 4-6 cup teapot.
The pattern does require a knowledge of knitting and crochet.
You will receive 2 pdf’s with your purchase as a knitted version of the sunflower is now included.
The cosy shown is knitted in a mock cable pattern using Red Heart Soft yarn - dark green worsted/aran yarn which comes in 5oz/140 gr/256 yd/ 234 m skeins.
The sunflower and leaves can be crocheted using any DK or sport yarn, acrylic or yarn of your choice.
The center of the sunflower is decorated with dark brown or black beads of your choice.
While the teacosy base and petals require approx. 100 grams/234m of yarn, the leaves only require a tiny amount of pale green yarn to complete.
