Freebie Friday - Christmas Pudding Tea Cosy

Pudding Cosy

This is the most adorable tea cosy I've ever seen.  Or maybe it's just the Christmas carols talking.  Either way, I wanted to share it with you.  It's from across the Pond in England, so the terminology is a little different, but it's a super easy pattern, and I know you'll do just fine!

By the way, when you knit up a Freebie from Friday posts, I'd love to see how they come out!  Email me!

Friday Freebies

I'm feeling like a homebody lately, so I've decided to offer free patterns for home use this week.  Today we have a beautiful Felted Bowl from Knitvana. Made with a 100% wool yarn (not superwash!) this bowl will be easy to knit up, and it's a super first-felting project.  You can choose a variegated yarn, self striping, solid, or create your own striping pattern with yarns in a couple of different colors.  Make it to hold your pocket change and keys, or recently collected pine cones, or anything you can think of!

This eponymous Tea Cozy has admirable spunk, and the added benefit of colorwork!  For all of us who like our tea hot, tea cozies are a winter necessity. This one covers the pot from handle to spout, keeping your favorite infusion piping hot!  Those knitted treats don't look half bad either.  No calories!
