Holiday Cruiser Tea Cosy and Knitting Pattern

Description

The Holiday Cruiser tea cosy was inspired by holiday boats and holiday cruisers. I received a request to design a Norfolk Broads boat tea cosy from a lady who lives that way. I liked the idea because it's always nice to have things that remind you of holidays and good times.

Cruisers tend to be white so the main part of the tea cosy is all white, but around the boat is a line which I have knitted in Stylecraft Pistachio, but you could make it any colour you choose.

The cruiser has fenders hanging down along the sides of the boat and there is an anchor on the front of the bow between the bow railings.

It's a fun tea cosy to make and it looks great on a teapot. The extra padding in the bow and stern means its really insulating. Perfect for those people who love boating holidays.

Go cruising with a hot cup of tea.

This Tea Cosy:

• is made from double thickness yarn for extra insulation
• fits a medium sized teapot that holds 6 to 8 cups or 2 pints
