I made this tea cosy for Al’s Gran who wanted something bright and yellow to put on her pot. It was fun to make and easy, but was unlike anything I’d made before thanks to the almost semi-circular style. You start with an oblong and keep going back and forth round it, creating a nice ridged effect. The bottom was unusual as well, using a repeating triangle of double crochet, half treble, treble and double treble to create a band. It uses US names so you’ll need to keep that in mind if you’re a Brit. [Click for bigger pics]
