Dustman Tea Cosy Knitting Pattern

Bin men do such an amazing job that I was inspired to design a Dustman Tea Cosy Knitting Pattern.

He's wearing overall style dungarees, big boots and a flat cap.

Bin men always seem to be happy and quick with a greeting, so it seems to follow that these cheerful workers would whistle as they worked.

He has a full bin slung over his shoulder that he is carrying along to empty into the cart. On the top of the bin is a tied up dustbin bag full of rubbish.

It's a great tea cosy to knit and I think we have all found a new appreciation of frontline workers.

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 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 Him very soon!

This product is the knitting pattern only; to knit your own Bin man tea cosy.
