With the Nurse Tea Cosy Knitting Pattern you can make a lovely tea cosy of a nurse - perfect for celebrating nurses and the amazing work that they do.
I thought it would add a bit of humour to the tea cosy so the cosy depicts a nurse during her busy working day, with a rather smelly bedpan to dispose of.
The design is based on vintage nursing uniforms, when the nurses wore little paper hats, fob watches and those big buckled belts.
The nurse has a spiky hairstyle, that is achieved by casting on and off stitches a bit like making big buttonholes.
Nurses are amazing, and if anyone deserves a hot cup of tea, its got to be the medical nurses who really have a tough job caring for patients, so raise your hot beverage to the nurses!
The Nurse 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 Her very soon!
This product is the knitting pattern only; to knit your own Nurse 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.
