Simple Sherlock Tea Cosy by A Very British Affair @ Two Red Trees


Inspired by A Very British Affair's original Sherlock tea cosy, just simpler! The cosy comprises six panels, two recycled wool, one boiled Fairisle and three tweed, featuring a padded complementary tweed panel with 'A VERY BRITISH AFFAIR's' logo name tag. Each panel has been padded and lined with a pale grey felted Shetland wool before being overstitched together leaving a hole for the spout and handle. The knitted woollen rose on top has been finished with a vintage leather button. The cosy measures roughly 24cm high and each panel is about 13cm at its widest point, so it’s about 82cm in circumference at the base. It very comfortably fits a Denby 2 1/4 pint teapot and will accommodate a much larger pot.
