Excalibur Tea Cosy

I'm feeling all dramatical as I embark on this knitting adventure of long lost legends of King Arthur. What trials await me as I start this journey into the unknown as the Sword in the stone is revealed to me as I design the Excalibur Tea Cosy?

Greetings, fellow knights of the knitting realm! Today, we embark on a quest that combines the enchantment of Arthurian legends with the warmth of a well-brewed cuppa. Our destination? The mystical Excalibur Tea Cosy. A creation that will adorn your teapot with the magic of Camelot.


The tea cosy will depict the Sword in a humble anvil, weathered by time, resting upon a timeless stone. And there, embedded with celestial grace, lies the legendary sword; Excalibur itself. Its hilt adorned with runes, its blade shimmering like moonlight on a dew-kissed morning. As you knit, channel the spirit of Merlin, for this sword holds secrets beyond mortal ken.

But wait! The anvil is not alone. Ivy, ancient and persistent, winds its way around the stone. Its leaves whisper forgotten spells, and its tendrils cling to the past. Knit each ivy leaf with care, for they are gateways to Avalon—the realm of magic and mystery. And nestled among the leaves, the elusive berries—small orbs of enchantment that defy the seasons.

Ah, the ivy berries; I do love them and they give the design a hint of the winter season, but how do we capture their essence in yarn? Fear not, brave knitter! I may have to invoke the Lady of the Lake, the Round Table, and the whispers of Camelot’s stones but I shall endeavour to design ivy berries.

As I design this cosy, my needles may hum with magic, and my stitches may weave destiny. And when the Excalibur Tea Cosy is complete, I shall raise it high as a beacon for all who seek warmth, wonder, and a touch of legend.

Remember, dear knitter: Excalibur awaits.

Disclaimer: This tea cosy does not grant sovereignty over kingdoms, but it does keep your tea delightfully warm.
