I originally designed this tea cosy back in early 2011, having been asked by many customers for a “traditional” tea cosy pattern. The first design was in 2 colours.

I re-visited it in 2012 for the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee and - obviously - had to change the colours to red, white and blue!

I think it works really well, it’s easy to knit and really does keep your tea warm - perfect for those Jubilee street parties or any other day when only a pot of tea will do!
