TeaCosyFolk's Uncle Sam Tea Cosy Knitting Pattern

This Uncle Sam Tea Cosy is a bright and patriotic character who instantly brings a smile. His tall hat, bold stripes and classic blue coat make him instantly recognisable, and he looks brilliant wrapped around the teapot. He’s perfect for Independence Day celebrations or simply adding a bit of fun to your everyday tea break.

The pattern is ten pages long and worked flat on two needles with seams, making it nice and approachable. There are no charts to follow, and the design has been created so the stars-and-stripes effect is achieved without complicated colour work. Any sections that seem a little fiddly are supported by help videos, and once you’ve watched them the steps feel very easy. The pattern also includes plenty of photos to guide you.

He fits a medium sized Price & Kensington teapot and is a really enjoyable knit from start to finish. The pattern is available as a digital download immediately after purchase, so you can begin knitting him right away. This product is the knitting pattern only to make your own Uncle Sam tea cosy.

The pattern is ten pages long and full of clear, friendly instructions. It’s knitted flat on two needles with seams, and there are no charts at all. The shaping is cleverly planned so you get all the detail without needing advanced colour work. For the parts that look a little more involved, there are help videos to show you exactly what to do, and once you’ve watched them the whole project feels very simple. Lots of photos are included too.

He fits a medium sized Price & Kensington teapot and is a great project for knitters who enjoy making characters.
