With the Beltie Tea Cosy knitting pattern you could create a super cow tea cosy that looks like the Scottish belted Galloway cattle. It's called beltited due to the white strip or belt about it's middle.

To give the Belted Galloway tea cosy that woolly look, I used King Cole Cuddles Chunky, which is very insulating with its texture which knits up to give a nice nap to the finished cosy.

The Beltie tea cosy is a lovely cosy and I can see people who love farm animals and the countryside as well and people who love Scotland enjoying this cosy.

About her feet in the thick lush grass are thistles. I thought they would add a nice touch of colour to the cosy and again it harks back to the breeds heritage.

The Beltie 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 her very soon!

This product is the knitting pattern only to make your own Beltie tea cosy.

There are 5 pages tot he pattern with photos to show you in more detail how to construct the cosy. The stitches are basic and not very difficult.

Fits a 2 pint teapot.
