The Vintage RAF Pilot Tea Cosy is an aviation sensation and a vintage celebration on a teapot!
The pilot tea cosy has all the stereotypical flight gear, an aviation hat, flying goggles, a scarf and a sheepskin jacket. For a bit of fun, his goggles can be raised or lowered over his eyes; Perfect for when he's going in!
Flying above him, by aid of a bamboo knitting needle is an old fashioned biplane which can be turned to point in any direction. I thought it would be really quirky to add an old style aircraft on the tea cosy. The plane is great fun to make and helps to give the cosy a vintage feel.
I love his handlebar mustache, it just gives him lots of character.
The Vintage RAF Pilot tea cosy fits a medium sized tea pot 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 make your own Vintage RAF Pilot 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.
