    Flower Garden Tea Cosy

    My last blog post for Easter. Here is the pattern for my Flower Garden Tea Cosy.
    This is the cosy in the background of my blog title.
    It's another tiny cosy fitting a 1 cup teapot, but at the end I've included the
    instructions to make a larger cosy. It's so easy, & the crochet flowers are a breeze
    as well.
    Here it is, again if there are any mistakes please let me know,

    Tension – 16 sts & 23 rows over 10 x 10cm in st st using 5.5mm needles


    & 8ply yarn doubled.

    Cosy is knitted in 2 pieces with yarn doubled.

    Crochet instructions use English Terminology.

    FRONT/BACK

    Using 5.5mm needles & 2 strands of grass green cast on 25 sts.

    Garter st 3 rows.

    Starting with a knit row & continuing in green, st st 12 rows (approx. measures
    6.5cm from cast on edge).

    Change to Aqua & st st 12 rows

    Next row (K2, K2tog) to last st, K1 - 19sts.

    St st 5 rows.

    Eyelet Row - K1, (Yf, K2tog, K1) to end.

    St st 3 rows.

    Cast Off.

    Make back to match.

    FLOWERS

    Using 4.00mm hook & 1 strand of yellow, make 4ch, sl st into 1st ch to form ring.

    1st round - 8dc into ring, join with a sl st to first dc. Fasten off.

    2nd round - Join pink with a sl st to any dc, (4ch, leaving the last loop of each
    dtr on hook, work 2 dtr into same dc, yoh and draw through all 3 loops on hook,
    4ch, sl st into same dc (petal), sl st into next dc) repeat 7 more times working last
    sl st of the last repeat into the first dc of round. 8 petals made.

    Fasten off. Make 6 flowers, 3 for front, 3 for back.

    Using photo as a guide, sew flowers on (2 outer flowers are centred on the colour
    change & the centre flower a little higher). I sew the flowers on around the yellow
    centre then I also put a couple of holding stitches into each petal from the back to
    keep them looking tidy.

    With a backstitch & dark green yarn, stitch in the stems & work a lazy daisy stitch
    for each leaf.

    Sew a button on each flower centre.

    You can add extra bee, ladybug or flower buttons to jazz up the garden if you
    wish.(I'm really trying to use up those bee buttons!!)

    Flower Garden Tea Cosy http://justjen-knitsandstitches.blogspot.com/2011/04/flower-garden-tea...

    With a flat seam, sew up from the bottom as far as the garter stitch, & down from
    the top to fit your pot’s handle & spout.

    Crochet a chain drawstring with yellow yarn, thread through eyelets, tying in a
    bow.

    Being so small, this is quite a snug cosy, if you’re making it for someone elderly,
    instead of sewing the seam under the handle you can instead add 2 crochet ties, or
    a button & crochet loop to make it easier to get on & off, if you prefer.

    To make a cosy to fit a Teapot 39cm circumference, 12 - 13cm high

    Follow the previous instructions but

    Cast on 32 sts.

    Garter St 5 rows before changing to st st.

    St st 14 rows green,

    Change to aqua & st st 14 rows.

    Next row – (k2, k2tog) to end – 24sts.

    St st 5 rows

    Eyelet Row – K2, (yf k2tog, k1), to last st, k1.

    St st 5 rows.

    Hope you enjoy the pattern, please let me know if there are any mistakes - Jenny
