Cast on your needles like a curious electron, for this tea cosy pays homage to Marie Curie’s luminous legacy.

Crafted in honour of Marie Curie’s pioneering research, this tea cosy combines warmth and curiosity. As you pour your cuppa, remember the woman who helped countless people through her radium discoveries, which paved the way for radiotherapy.

Inspired by an aged black-and-white photograph of Marie, the flask’s have been imagined to contain a vivid, radioactive green glow. As you stitch, imagine flask-shaped motifs, each containing a hint of radioactivity, just like Marie’s ground-breaking experiments.

Marie’s grand, full-length dress features daffodil motifs on the skirt. They’re not just flowers; they’re symbols of resilience, echoing Marie’s unwavering pursuit of knowledge.

The Marie Curie Tea Cosy knitting pattern from TeaCosyFolk weaves history, science, and creativity. Knit in homage to this remarkable trailblazer.

The Marie Curie tea cosy is a 6 page knitting pattern that is worked flat on straight needles. There are YouTube help videos for the trickier parts - links included in the pattern.
