Knitted Teapot Sweater

[Pyroteca]

DH really wanted me to make a teapot cosy that looked like an Aran sweater with cables. This was my first attempt at knitting cables, and I think it turned out pretty well. The pattern is based on the Tea for Two pattern out of the SnB Nation book. Thanks for looking!

Very nice, and how clever of you to adapt the pattern. Your work is so neat that no one will believe this is your first attempt at knitting cables!

Thank you so much for the lovely compliment. This is only the third item I have tried knitting, with the first two being a scarf and some socks.

Very nice that would make a cute hat too.

Oh, I love it! And aren't cables so much easier than you thought they'd be? That was my impression when I taught myself to knit cables. Well done! Patty

Wow, way to go!

Thank you all so much for the lovely comments, and yes, the cable was easier than I thought it would be, though I had to read through the instructions on how to make them a couple of times. Still, it was worth it, and now I may be a cable addict.

This is adorable, Pyroteca! You and your husband are very clever to think this up and then execute it so beautifully. Plus, you keep your tea hot, LOL!
