This is worked sideways on, front and back, from handle to spout, and for the intermediate skilled in crochet, it is adaptable for other sizes of tea pot. The drawstring can be decorated with beads (as illustrated) or pompoms. Approximately 50g each of the main and contrast colours are required to achieve the effect illustrated, or this makes an ideal pattern for using up stashed yarns.
