The Shakespeare Tea Cosy is a ode to the great man, in a knitted form.

The main part of the cosy is made in Stylecraft Special DK Petrol, because it’s a lovely rich colour and the sort of shade I expect the fashion of that ear to be.

I gave the Shakespeare tea cosy those iconic looking sleeves where you can see another colour under ‘holes’ in the upper fabric.

In Shakespeare’s right hand he is holding a quill, and in his left he is holding a skull, maybe he is writing the story of Hamlet? Around the back of Shakespeare, you will find a little shrew running along.

The pattern is knitted on two pins and is easy to follow and is mainly worked in stocking stitch.

The tea cosy fits a medium sized teapot that covers a Teapot that holds 6 to 8 cups or 2 pints.

The pattern will be available for digital download as soon as you have completed purchase, so you could start knitting Him very soon!

This product is the knitting pattern only; One has to make their own Shakespeare tea cosy.
