Prim Pleated Teacosy – Tadah

I promised that I would show you the finished article and here it is. Very cosy and so satisfying to touch. I didn’t put a pom pom on the top as I am currently going on a loop and button riff at the moment. I made the teacosy in navy and white to go with my dotty teapot , plus stripes and dots together are such fun. (Such fun?! – I am becoming a parody of myself!)

If you have the inclination to make one, do it. It is a little heirloom piece. I now have my next version cast on for some poor unsuspecting friend. As I mentioned before the real beauty is in the inside, and before you think it, no you don’t catch the spout on the carried yarn. Most of the time my hook or needles have mad little projects that have evolved out of my crazy head. But I do like the relaxing joy of following a pattern and this one was certainly fun.
