My mom is a real tea drinker and I thought she might like this. I purchased this swirly button from Joann Fabrics. The swirls match the stripes in the cozy. Neat huh.
Only after completing the project did I notice that my letters were skinnier than the designer's photo. I did it as charted but I noticed that her letters are a column thicker. It's okay though, it looks decent. As you can see, I have not blocked this yet.
This is an okay pattern, I don't think I will make another but this project came in handy this weekend and I'm happy to send my Mom another gift.
Pattern: Striped Tea Cozy - Here is the pattern.
Yarn: Patons Classic Wool
Needles: US 7
Positives: Quick and Easy
Negatives: The cozy came out really, really large.
This may be my last small project for a while. I have to make more shawls and there is that sweater I started a while ago. Oh dear. Anyway...
Have a good one !
