Knitted fluffy pink pig tea cosy

Well, I am slowly making my way down the list of tea cosies I'd like to get made! Here's the latest addition to the Fluffy Duck family, a cute pink pig. The main body of the tea cosy is knitted using my usual basic pattern. To this I have added an oversized snout, large floppy ears and a curly tail. These have been crocheted. The snout is lightly stuffed with polyester stuffing to created a 3D effect. The googly eyes add another fun dimension. I've used a soft fluffy yarn that naturally shades from pale pink through to dark pink. It really is very soft to the touch!
Pink pig, together with other cute animal tea cosies is available in my Etsy shop now.

 

Knitted sheep tea cosy

A re-make of an old favourite! It's been a while, but I have finally got round to making another sheep tea cosy.
With trying out 'new' projects, I let the sheep tea cosy fall into the background `- but not any more! The loop stitch takes a bit of mastering (it is a real fiddle until you get the hang of it) but it creates a lovely 'woolly' effect and thick tea cosy.
The face is made in plain stocking stitch and sewn firmly to the body of the tea cosy.
The gaps at the side of the tea cosy allow plenty of room for the handle and spout, making it ideal for any medium to large teapot.
