It’s The Christmas Crochet Teapot Pattern!

December 16, 2017 by The Twisted Yarn 14 Comments

Gosh, judging by your responses to the Adagio giveaway, you lot do enjoy your tea! There are still a few hours left in which you can enter, if you haven’t done so already. Good luck!

Meanwhile, the crochet Christmas tree seemed to be the most popular of the tea cosies that I designed, so I’ve written up the pattern for that, and I’ll post it below, for FREE! This is the fellow:-

It fits a standard two-cup teapot. (You could always scale up or down with larger or smaller yarn and hook if you wanted to make one a different size, though.)

The beast you see above was crocheted in Stylecraft Special, DK-weight. It’s based on crocodile stitch. If you’ve never tried this stitch before, I do recommend having a little go using my photo-tutorial before moving on to the pattern.

If you do decide to make yourself this tea cosy (because obviously, you haven’t got anything else to do between now and Christmas Day), then I’d love to see a picture of it keeping the chill off your brew. I’ll pop the design on my Ravelry design page, too.

Anyway, shall we get on with the job? Yeah, why not. Here’s the pattern! Free Christmas Tree Tea-Cosy Crochet Pattern!

Enjoy.

    I love this! And (should I start a sentence with ‘and’?) since apart from 3 others, I have a 14 and a 16 year old, one who can argue her way out of a paper bag and one who knows everything!! then I have nothing else to do this week but crochet this little number!! Festive loveliness to you and yours xx

My lovely friend (since the age of about 4) has just turned 50. We don't usually exchange gifts but she sent me such a thoughtful present when I hit the half-century, and I wanted to do something nice for her. So I designed and made this cowl. I hope she likes it...

Another crochet-to-the-rescue post! Two days ago I had more surgery, to deal with the outcome of previous cancer-tackling surgery.

The steeks are cut and it's beginning to look a lot like a cardigan (apart from the lack of sleeves, collar, button bands, buttons, and a really thorough blocking, but what's a few details between friends?) I'm excited that the knitted reality is coming out pretty much how I hoped when I created the design. Feel free to laugh at my hubris when it all goes wrong tomorrow...

Half-way through the dragonfly motif on my Äkäslompolo cardigan. Speedy progress on knitting due to annoyingly slow progress on surgery recovery. Grrr....

There are SO MANY swatches needing knitting for the book. I reckon I can show you this one in progress, because only the reverse will be visible in the finished shot.

We popped down to the New Forest for the day. The twinnage loved it. There was, of course, some knitting.

This is going to sound like a paid advert, but I swear that it's not. I've just stumbled across a website called @YarnSub and it's awesome! You can enter the name of any yarn and it'll give you the best possible substitutions with a % match score based on gauge, texture, fibre, etc. See https://yarnsub.com and enjoy!

Decent weather for a run. Yes I do occasionally put my knitting down. The colours of this view are a statement, too.
