Wool Sweater Tea Cozy

Make a tea cozy by using the neck opening of an old sweater. I simply eye-balled the amount of sweater I needed by laying the tea pot on the inside-out sweater and drawing a sewing line around it.

Stitched on the line, then cut it out leaving about 5/8 seam allowance beyond the stitching. Turn right-side-out. Slip it over your tea pot.

Decorate if you want or leave it plain. Wool holds heat in and keeps my tea hot. Lots of sweater left for making other stuff too.
