Large Black Pig Tea Cosy

Description

This tea cosy was commissioned by a pig breeder in America that specialise in Large Black Pigs, so it was important to get the shape and characteristics right.

Not only is it a Large Black Pig, but it's also a large sized tea cosy that fits a teapot that holds 10 cups of tea.

Around the pig I was asked to adorn the pasture with poppies. They look really eye popping against the blackness of the pig.

I think the trickiest part of this tea cosy was knitting with black yarn. You can only really work with black with daylight.

I do love the Large Black Pig tea cosy, I think she's rather cute and has a playful charm. I love that she's based on a real breed too and looks like a pig.

Pig out at tea time!
