Dawn Brocco's adorable Strawberry Tea Cozy
has spout and handle openings, so the cozy can remain on the teapot, whilst
pouring, and comes in 2-3 and 3-4 cup sizes.
This is an advanced beginner project – the stitch pattern is
mostly Stockinette with a pattern round of dropped sts – quickly learned. Dawn
used this stitch pattern to design her
Strawberry Baby Blanket. The openings have a single crochet
edging. Four leaves, an I-Cord stem and I-Cord vines with newly forming white
berries embellish the top. White seeds are stitched on after the knitting is
complete.
Sizes: 2-3 cup / 3-4 cup. Tea pots vary is size. The 3-4 cup
cozy fits Dawn's 5-cup broad Staffordshire pot, as well as a 4-cup rounder Brown
Betty.
