The Suffragette Tea Cosy is a beautiful tea cosy depicting a Suffragette lady based on old photos of the Pankhursts and the British Suffrage Movement of the time.

The suffragette tea cosy is a well dressed lady wearing a violet dress under a green coat with a fur collar. She has curls peeking from beneath a black hat with a fluffy detailing. As you would expect she has a Votes for Women sash on and is sporting a suffragette rosette.

This votes for women tea cosy is currently on a protest and has chained herself to the teapot. There is a loop in the chain that loops over the spout of a teapot.

The suffragette tea cosy has a few challenging elements, but I know there are knitters out there that like to try something new. You will need a cable needle, not for cabling for for grafting stitches together, there is a photo for reference. You will also need to knit bobbles which involves turning the work mid row. The chain looks more challenging than it actually is, and needs blocking to get the full effect. Again there is a photo to show you how you work should be looking for those needing reassurance.

The suffragette tea cosy is great fun to make and she’s stunning, a great project to have a go at and enjoy.

The suffragette 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 her very soon!
