Cozy Cottage
This tea cozy measures 10”X6” and will accommodate a standard 1 quart teapot including the handle and spout. The roof is stuffed with fiberfill to give it shape and extra insulation. The sides are reinforced with craft foam for the same reasons. The piece is a sampler of many stitches and techniques, making it a good practice piece. The weaving, tuck and slip stitch all use the same punch-card. It also makes an excellent gift.
Any bulky machine can make this including Bonds and other hobby machines. Help notes for hobby machines are included. If your mid-gauge knits worsted weight yarn comfortably, it may be used as well but do remember that there is weaving and tucking in use so if stockinette requires the largest stitch size and knits stiffly, most likely weaving and tuck will be problematic.
The Patons Classic wool listed is a nice option for the smooth knitting but any combination of #4 yarns may be used. It’s fun to use a textured yarn for the roof.
