The Tudor Rose tea cosy is perfect for people who love history or who are having a medieval wedding.

The knitting pattern is given in three sizes - small, medium and large. Small 2 cup teapot: Medium 6 -8 cup teapot : Large 10 cup teapot.

The pattern can easily be changed in colour to make a Yorkshire rose tea cosy or a Lancaster Rose tea cosy.
