Compose a cosy classic with our Harpist Tea Cosy pattern, where the art of knitting meets the heart of music. The main part of the cosy forms the harpist's dress which is a flowing and heavily pleated dress. She is sat at the harp playing and the harp is resting again her shoulder.
The harp itself is stiffened with Funky Foam to keep it ridged and upright, and then the strings of the harp are sewn inside the frame of the harp.
The harpist is wearing her hair in a ponytail out of the way, and she is wearing glasses made from clear buttons.
Her hands are knitted with individual digits. As a harpist, your fingers are crucial for plucking the strings, so it was important to give the tea cosy fingers. The fingers are knitting with a cast-on and cast-off technique, and there is a TeaCosyFolk Youtube Help Video to show you have to knit the hands, and the link to the video is also included in the knitting pattern.
So, whether you’re a tea aficionado, a music lover, or simply someone who appreciates the finer things in life, the Harpist Tea Cosy is a must-have. It’s not just a cosy; it’s a statement piece, and a testament to the art of knitting.
Parts of the pattern might be a bit tricky, but there are Youtube videos to help.
The harp player 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 harp player 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.
