- How to knit a super chunky tea cosy - a perfect beginner's knitting project! In this easy to follow knitting project video, I will take you through, step-by-step, how to knit your very own tea cosy. I've designed this pattern to fit a typical 2 - 4 cup tea pot and I've included some optional decorative details including how to make a pompom and a crochet chain!
The video includes how to do a simple, yet effective, 1x1 rib stitch pattern, stocking stitch (AKA stockinette stitch) and a simple decrease. Great if you've never decreased before. As the tea cosy is knitted up using super chunky / super bulky yarn it knits up really quickly and is super satisfying. It is also super thick so will help to keep your tea warmer for longer.
The full written pattern is available here:

Hi, your video instructions are simply brilliant. I'm an experienced knitter/crocheter and was blown away by the video. Your tip for sewing up is genius. Have now made three cosies these last two days. Thank you xx
Thank you so much! That’s so so kind!
Thank you for this. I was looking for a quick, easy pattern for a tea cosy and yours was ideal.
This was a brilliant tutorial to follow. The instructions were helpful and clear, and the tea cosy knit up in an afternoon! I'm a fan of a quick knit - which was great as this was a wedding gift. Thanks for this!

Aww what lovely tea cosies and excellent tutorial thank you.. I shall be giving it a go 👍🏼
Thanks so much 😊
I am so glad I saw this video, I have a 2 cup teapot and was looking for a tea cozy pattern that would fit it. Thank you for this video and pattern. The pattern calls for size 7mm knitting needles, mine doesn't have mm's on them they have straight numbers (2, 4, 5, etc) so I have no idea what size to use. I am in the U.S. and have some very old needles.
Merci merci pour ce tuto depuis le temps que je cherche un modèle facile à faire je m y met tout de suite à le faire et je m abonne explications claires et simples
Bonne et heureuse année 2024 depuis la nouvelle caledonie
Thank you so much for such a lovely comment ☺️ happy knitting! 🧶
Ziet er heel leuk uit
This is so cute! I'm gonna try making it but with 2 different colors of yarn, so that the ribbing is a nice earthy olive tone and the top is a warm cream color. I've never actually _made_ something with knitting before but this seems small and a good first full project
Sounds great! Go for it! Love the idea of two colour tones! Let me know how it goes xx
@FlockAndFern It went awesome! If you add the new color in the row you knit all the way immediately after the ribbing it's seamless. I'm putting the pictures on my Instagram
nice thats soooooooo coooooooooolllllll
Aww thanks 🙏 thanks

Lovely instructions but have you a pattern that fits a big teapot please????
This is a super easy tea cosy thank you, Im just wondering are you left handed? When making the pompom, I use the same pompom maker but I find it way easier to trim the pompom into shape before I remove it from the gadget. When sewing the pompom on, I thread the two strands of wool through the project so that they can be tied off from inside the project then thread the two loose end back up through the pompom so it looks part of it then trim the ends. I hope you find this helpful. Thank you for sharing your video
How do I make this for a 6 pot tea cozy
Hi, thanks for the tutorial. I was wondering if you have suggestions for doing it with thinner wool. Thanks for any suggestions.
Great idea! I'll have a think and design another pattern - probably for aran/worsted weight :)
Forgot to ask Can I Use Size 7 Needles And Double Knit Wool Please xx
If you use Aron wool how many stitches do you use. Love your patterns you are so easy to follow. Thanking you in advance.
Hey, good question. I'll put my thinking cap on and come up with a pattern for aran weight yarn. :)
Thanks @Flock&Fern for such a lovely pattern! I was wondering if you wanted to make the pattern for a slightly larger tea pot (on the larger side like a 6 cup), how would you adapt it? Rather than 23 stitches to cast on, could you do 25 or 27? (I did purchase your pattern from your website!) Thanks for any suggestions!
Hi Heather, thanks so much for the comment, and I'm so glad you like our pattern! It's tricky without knowing the dimensions of the teapot itself, but I'd perhaps try with 29 or 31 cast on stitches, and do a couple of extra rows of the main body before the decrease.
Love the pattern.
Do you have the pattern to make a bigger tea cost please?
Thanks so much! Ohh yeah I’ll add it to the new video list! Happy knitting 🧶
Love this, I’m going to give it a try. Roughly much yarn do you need for this?
Thanks so much Sam. You’ll need about 100g for the main part and 20g for the chain and Pompom if you fancy adding the decoration too. Happy knitting!
What size needles are they I have USA sizes?
I wasn’t able to find the written pattern
Hi Sandy - it's at this link: www.etsy.com/uk/listing/1109877464/tea-cosy-knitting-pattern-with-video?
Do you block the tea cost when you are done?
Hi Christina, I didn’t block it, no. Thanks!
Please show this beanie on 2 straight needles
Thanks for the suggestion! Will do!
Is cotton or wool better for this project?
Hey 👋 thanks for getting in touch. Yarn would be better to maintain the gauge for this pattern. But I’ll add a cotton teas cosy pattern to my list and let you know when it’s ready!
Would this fit a small 2 cup teapot?
Yeah it might be a little baggy but should be ok 👌
