TeaCosyFolk's Sugar Lump Ant Tea Cosy Knitting Pattern

Product description

Sweet, sunny, and slightly bonkers, the Sugar Lump Ant Tea Cosy Knitting Pattern by TeaCosyFolk is here to steal your heart (and your sugar).

TeaCosyFolk, known for their delightfully characterful tea cosies, have stitched up another showstopper with the Sugar Lump Ant. This cheerful little ant stands upright, proudly gathering sugar cubes to take back to his own private tea party. The teapot nestles snugly inside his sunny yellow body, making him both functional and fabulously fun.

With his cartoon-style features, the Sugar Lump Ant feels more cuddly companion than creepy crawly. His sweet antennae are cleverly stiffened with cotton buds to keep them perked up, and his expression suggests he’s rather pleased with his sugar-stacking progress.

TeaCosyFolk’s Sugar Lump Ant Tea Cosy Knitting Pattern is ideal for anyone who enjoys their tea with a generous helping of personality.

The six-page pattern is written in English and includes case-sensitive links to helpful YouTube videos, including one that walks you through the short rows used to shape the sugar lumps. The cosy is knitted flat on two needles and finished with seams, making it a satisfying project for confident knitters who love a bit of storytelling in their stitches

The Sugar Lump Ant 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!

This product is the knitting pattern only to make your own Sugar Lump Ant tea cosy.
