Mrs Webmuppet Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 I've been busy making one of these- http://www.quilters-haven.co.uk/shop/new-products/tea-for-who-owl-tea-cozy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UKMARCH Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 Love the owl tea cosy I bought a smaller owl egg cosy for a friend for Christmas perhaps I should try making a matching tea cosy too! Dogmother love the coats, I need to do a new one for my youngest as hers has a low neck and she keeps chewing it in the morning when she can't wait for someone to come and take it off I need to do a high neck version has yours got a snood? Also does the belly band velcro or button? I've got a really excellent one which I got from greytsweats which is knitted and buttons underneath and it has seen us through a few winters as pjs as well as a winter undercoat and during camping trips but the cost of a new one now is so expensive and I definitely wouldn't get one if it might get chewed!

Plum Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 Claire you rotten thing make your doggy a cheerful one no wonder she's giving you baleful looks. It is good though she'll thank you when that east wind starts blowing. That tea cosy is so cute we need to see your one Mrs Webmupp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 UKMARCH, it just has turned over bands at the leg and neck holes; the one on the neck is slightly deeper. No buttons or velcro, just a solid section underneath, it's stretchy enough to get on and off quite easily. I'm going to make the top section slightly wider as Cyrus has muscly shoulders. and it would be tighter on him. Moochoo has pointed out that while the skull & crossbones print suits ASBO Girl here, that Cyrus would prefer a more gentle pastel tone, perhaps with butterflies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kazzy73 Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Arrrrrr what a cute owl love it, Have been teaching myself to crochet a broomstick lace hat,is a very pretty stitch and really easy to do once you get the knack (hopefully will give it away in the xmas craft secret santa) and made some mittens in the same colour and just finishing off the scarf which I have done in crocodile scale stitch.
