The English Cocker Spaniel tea cosy is based on the very cute English cocker spaniel breed. The fluffy and soft garter stitch on the main tea cosy and the dogs ears are representative of the breeds plush and curly coat, and feels as soft as the actual breeds ears.
The cocker spaniel has a cute expression with its big brown eyes and hairy eyelids. This tea cosy is perfect for any dog lover and it really keeps the teapot.
The English Cocker Spaniel tea cosy always likes a biscuit or two with his cup of tea.

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.
