Just don't tell me that you have "caught" the knitting bug, because I will just consider it another ruse to avoid writing!!!!!<br />That said it is a very sweet Tea cosy and obviously useful for a tea fanatic. Now go and write something.sheepishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18252518055252342236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8148402657600219790.post-74081374509849505392009-08-20T18:57:23.654+07:002009-08-20T18:57:23.654+07:00Fabulous!

I'm sewing in the ends of a blanket I've knitted for my friend's baby (who is now 2 weeks overdue, so could appear at any minute!).<br /><br />I hate sewing in ends.Lazy Perfectionistahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01683908637772154798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8148402657600219790.post-90902593968850075602009-08-20T17:31:46.187+07:002009-08-20T17:31:46.187+07:00Oh, that is brilliant!!

Yes, that's it precisely. And it's long enough <i>by design</i> to keep the warm air inside the cosy...<br /><br />Liz, very true... with simple knitting. With this I had to concentrate HARD so wasn't sure if my subconscious was free to wander or not.<br /><br />L Plate, thanks sweetie. I did turn the air blue with swearing on occasions... <br /><br />Binge Knitter, Oooh, you came and looked. Thank you. I got in a bit of a pickle at the top with my icord, but hey, it doesn't look bad. Excellent instructions, thank you.<br /><br />Debs, thanks. I've been determined with this. It took several attempts, I contemplated getting someone else to do it for me... but damn it, I wanted to do it.<br /><br />Flowerpot, thank you. I darned the holes so no-one would see them!<br /><br />Carol, we did, didn't we? I thought I'd never get it done. I'm very pleased with it.Jenny Beattiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00640209636605410939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8148402657600219790.post-20359779313266944072009-08-20T16:06:02.638+07:002009-08-20T16:06:02.638+07:00I've been waiting to see how it would turn out...I've been waiting to see how it would turn out!!

And I'm sure you made it too big on purpose because of science, i.e. the air space inbetween the pot and the cosy helps to keep the tea hot for longer, like a thermos flask in reverse, right?Queeniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06988379866736219329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8148402657600219790.post-51842844417181775722009-08-20T11:38:49.745+07:002009-08-20T11:38:49.745+07:00Oh, that is adorable, I LOVE it!
