I am mad on the good old cup of tea. The perfect remedy for any situation. Always tastes better in a teacup with a saucer.
Has to be brewed in a pot, and the pot has to have a tea cosy.
I have been making these tea cosies for yonks. Funny how you have a pattern in the old noggon, which seems so simple, but writing it down on paper takes a whole new dimension. I do like this pattern as it is so simple once you get the hang of it, and looks so effective in different colours.
I have had my instructions tested by some very kind crochetmates, and now all I need to do is tidy it up a bit. I know some folks are keen to get their hands on this, but I am new to this pattern game and it does involve a bit of effort... so while you wait, put the billy on and make a brew.
I cant wait to try it - Ive been eyeing that thread with great hope that it will come soon - purplepeaches from crochetville.
ReplyDeleteI personally cannot wait for you to finish this pattern! I absolutely LOVE it!!!
ReplyDeleteI know how you feel about writing something down that's been in your head for ages. I do that with some of my recipes. Someone asks me, how did you make that? And I am like, um, I don't know, I added, this, and this, and that, oh wait, was that in there? And don't ever ask me for amounts! LOL
Thank you for sharing this. I want to make one soon:)
ReplyDeleteOOhh I love it!!
ReplyDeletedidn't realise you were from the gold coast!! (more like the cold coast at the moment, I'm freezing!).

ReplyDeleteThank you so much for sharing this pattern. What a great Blog, and your crochet work is beautiful. Some of your other patterns are really beautiful as well! I am located in So. California, so it is not too surprising to get creative help from your area. Many of my Dollmaking friends are from Australia. So, THANKS again for being so sharing.
