PATTERN NOTES

Have you ever admired a colorful tea cozy and secretly wished your clothes looked more like that? Have you ever worried that your leftover yarn stash might attain sentience and swallow your house if you don’t find some way to use it? Are you looking for a knitting project that’s a balm for your frayed nerves?

If you answered yes to any of those questions (and especially if you answered yes to all three!), then the Tea Cozy Pullover is for you! This pattern is designed to quickly use up your leftovers by holding two strands of sock weight yarn together. This creates a beautiful marled effect and is also surprisingly entertaining- some might even say this pattern is impossible to put down (it’s me, I said that). Seriously though: this was one of the most fun and relaxing things I’ve knit in ages. And my intrepid and talented test knitters agree!

The Tea Cozy Sweater is the pullover version of the Tea Cozy Cardigan (and I highly recommend knitting both!).
