The Dog Posting a Letter Tea Cosy knitting pattern is a fabulous 6 page pattern to knit your own wonderful snowy scene with a dog by a postbox.
To give the feeling of a snowy day, the main part of the tea cosy is knitted with a touch of Hayfield Bonus Glitter DK Icicle to add a glitter, frosted effect.
The little postbox is super cute and also has a snowy top. The detailing on the front of the box is intarsia worked from a chart. It is only a very small amount and could easily be swiss darned on if you prefer.
To keep the postbox upright, it's strengthened with a sheet of thin craft foam on the inside. But you could also use a plastic bottle.
The dog is a sweetie and could be knitted in any colour. He has the letter in his mouth which could be a Christmas card or a Happy New Year card perhaps?
It's a lovely tea cosy to make, with interesting rows and textures in the snow and its charming watching the dog come together.
The 6 page knitting pattern contains lots of photos to help and guide you.
The pattern is knitted on two pins and is easy to follow.
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; to knit your own Posting a Letter tea cosy.

I design and knit unique tea cosies. I really love designing exciting and unusual tea cosies, its great fun and people don’t mind having an over the top tea cosy. Plus they are a great talking point at tea time and make for brilliant knitting projects.
I have quite a following with regular customers who regularly buy my latest designs from my website TeaCosyFolk.co.uk
I have had a couple of patterns printed in the Simply Knitting Magazine, which is very exciting.
