The Platypus Tea Cosy knitting pattern is a proper little ripper and knits up to make a fair dinkum tea cosy that any Aussie would be proud of.
The platypus tea cosy is mainly brown and you can see his 4 webbed feet hanging down. His head is up and alert looking around. His beak is grey and I have used safety eyes for his eyes because they help to make animals look more life like. At the back is his tail.
He's an easy to make tea cosy and looks fantastic and so unusual. I love his feet and the bill makes his face look so cute. Who wouldn't love a platypus tea cosy?
The pattern is knitted on two pins and is easy to follow and is mainly worked in stocking stitch.
The tea cosy fits a medium sized tea pot that covers a Teapot that holds 6 to 8 cups.
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 make your own platypus 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.
