TeaCosyFolk's Gamer Tea Cosy Knitting Pattern

The TeaCosyFolk's Gamer Tea Cosy Knitting Pattern is perfect for gamers because they often leave their tea to go cold.

When I think of gamers I think back to the early days when it was all brick tennis and space invaders, so I designed the tea cosy to wear a space invaders top. The space invaders design is knitted in intarsia from a chart, but you could swiss darn on tot he knitting afterwards or simply miss it out all together.

His hair is messy and unbrushed; you don't need to worry about your appearance for gaming. On his head he is wearing earphones so that no one else has to suffer the music, jingles and endless bangs and explosions. He has the tell-tale hypnotised eyes, it's obviously been a long session.

In the gamer's hands in the controller. It has a blue light on the front and two joy sticks that his thumbs are attached to. I love his hands and the single digits, they make him look as if he's really pressing the buttons.

He's a cute tea cosy and very stereotypical of what we thing a gamer might look like. He's perfect for the avid gamer in your life.

The pattern includes a link to a Youtube help video for the loopy hair.

The Gamer 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 him very soon!

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