Great fun 1 July 2010
Format:Paperback
I just love this book. It has changed the way I think about tea cosies.I felt that knitting tea cosies was a hobby for old ladies, but how wrong was I!!!
I have made two of the styles and can't wait to make another. The patterns are realy simple.I am not a great knitter ,by any stretch of imagination, and I had no trouble with these designs,and they are such fun to make.
Of course,I am an older girl,I just keep forgeting that I am.I have purchased both of these books.Thank you Loani Prior.!!

Format:Paperback
This is a fun book, lots of wild and wacky designs which would make really interesting and unusual gifts. The snag is that they are all knit in the round so require a level of skill in manipulating multiple pins which many knitters may not possess. Also the patterns do not seem to easily lend themselves to adaptation to two needles. So this is probably a book to stay on the shelf and be admired at intervals but not to be used.

Stunning 17 Dec 2011
Format:Paperback
I had my eye in this book for ages before finally purchasing it. I could not decide which book to get. I really love the tea cosies in this book, they are really wild, imaginative and any of them would be a real talking point. None if them are simple or straightforward which is why as yet I have not started one. I feel I need to gear up to it and have a good stretch of time to do one. Not something you can do whilst keeping one eye on the television!

Highly recommended for the variety, the layout, the photographs and the stories that go with each cosy.

Tea Cosy Knitting Book
The cosies in this book are delightful, but the wool they suggest using is quite difficult to get hold of and expensive. Read more

Wild or what!
This is a really fantastic book with some great ideas. Not sure how practical they are but definitely good fun.

Really wild!!
This book title is so apt! the designs are works of art as much as tea cosies. In fact I'd hate to spend lots of time on one only to have tea dribble over it, I've not done any... Read more
