Tea Cozy

Lion Brand® Lion® Cotton - Cotton-Ease® (new)

GAUGE:

13 sts + 18½ rows = 4 in. [10 cm] in pattern. BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

STITCH EXPLANATION:

sp-2 (spike st 2 rows below) A single crochet worked in the st corresponding to the next st, but 2 rows below the working row (instead of in the usual st 1 row below the working row).

COLOR SEQUENCE
*1 row A, 1 row B, 1 row C, 1 row D, 1 row E, 1 row F, 1 row G; rep from * for color sequence.

NOTES:

  1. Unused colors should be carried up wrong side of work.
  2. To change color, work last stitch to the point where there are 2 loops on hook, yarn over with new color to complete stitch.

Tea Cozy Reviewed by Cyndy Cook on 2010-01-21 ****
I've already made this tea cozy and the tie definitely needs to be more than 8 chs long (to be of any use, that is). I made mine 100 ch long and it came out great.
I'll try to post a pic soon.
