Cozy Bells is a tea-cozy designed to celebrate Christmas every day of the Year. The bells will jingle softly as the tea is poured and your tea will remain warm for quite a white! I recommend printing this pattern in colour as there are many how to pictures to go along with the embellishing.

I have been knitting Tea Cozies pretty much as long as I have been knitting. At first - they were just for me. I knit them for my pots and as gifts for friends. Once I started to design, I started to share the pattern in a whole collection of whimsical cozies.

And just because I can, and just because I think a cozy should be whimsical and more than a little over the top; This year, I have designed a Christmas Themed Cozy. Covered in Christmas themed embellishments, holly and berries, bells that jingle softly and a large poinsettia, this cozy is simply a homage to everything I love about Christmas!

Please note that the cozy is attractive without the embellishments. So, if you are not a fan of embellishing the Cozy will still look great on its own!
