TeaCosyFolk's Emu Tea Cosy Knitting Pattern

Don’t bury your head in the sand—give your teapot a feathered makeover with this charming Emu Tea Cosy!

With its scruffy, layered feathers and dinosaur-like legs, this emu tea cosy is a delightful tribute to one of Australia’s most iconic flightless birds.

Knitted in two earthy shades, the body perfectly mimics the emu’s rugged plumage, while the head and neck boast King Cole Moment yarn for a soft, fluffy moulting effect. Amber safety eyes keep a watchful gaze over your brew, and those dangling legs? They add an extra dose of personality—because an emu never just sits still!

Whether you’re a tea lover, an animal enthusiast, or simply seeking a cosy with character, this one is sure to turn heads (and teapots).

Designed to fit a medium-sized teapot, it's knitted in Stylecraft Special DK, with King Cole Moments Black lending texture to complete the look.

No need to wing it—this cosy is designed to keep your tea warm while serving up heaps of character!

The tea cosy is knitted with double thickness yarn to keep the teapot and the tea really hot.

The emu 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 very soon!
