Description

St. George's Day in April always seems to arrive sooner than expected, ushering in a time for patriotic celebrations across England. Enthusiasts honour the occasion with quintessentially British traditions and proudly display the St. George's cross flag.

This captivating tea cosy features St. George heroically locked in battle with a fierce dragon. The dragon coils majestically around the base, forming the lower part of the tea cosy, while St. George himself stands boldly above, clad in a suit of gleaming armor and wielding his trusty sword. Draped across his back is a flowing cloak adorned with the iconic St. George cross.

The knitting pattern for this tea cosy spans eight detailed pages, supplemented by handy YouTube tutorial links to guide you through the trickier techniques. (Case-sensitive links are provided within the pattern itself for easy access.) Crafted using Stylecraft Special DK yarn; a high-quality acrylic yarn that is both affordable and widely available; this project is as enjoyable to make as it is to admire.

Perfectly suited for celebrating St. George's Day, this exquisite tea cosy combines charm and practicality, making every pot of tea feel like a legendary moment. Chase away the chill with the dragon’s fiery warmth and the knight’s valiant spirit wrapped around your teapot!

A tea cosy so epic, it’ll have you dragon your cup back for refills!
