10 Knitted Tea Pot Cozy Patterns For Spring

As the weather starts to get warmer, it can be easy to put away our tea pots and focus on other things. But even on the sunniest of days, a hot cup of tea can still be a comforting and enjoyable experience. And what better way to make your tea time even more special than by adding a beautiful and cozy knitted cover for your teapot.

We’ve rounded up ten of the best and most unique knitted teapot cozy patterns for you to choose from. These patterns range from simple and beginner-friendly, to more advanced projects with intricate designs. Some patterns feature classic spring colors and motifs like flowers, while others are more modern and abstract.

Not only are these cozies a practical way to keep your tea hot for longer, but they also add a touch of personality and style to your tabletop. They also make great gifts for the tea lover in your life. So, grab your needles and get ready to knit up a cozy that will bring a touch of warmth and beauty to your next tea time.

Craftown and Yarnspirations both have really easy garter stitch patterns that will get your pot covered in a hurry. Knit them in a solid color as shown or try stripes, whether consistent or random stash busting color changes. For a different take on the garter stitch cozy, check out the sideways knit Wake Me Up Tea Cozy from Close Knit, which is great worked in self-striping yarn or stashy stripes of any sort.

The Traditional Tea Cozy from Rosa Hoban has those vertical stripes you so commonly see on tea cozies, and could be made in pretty bright colors for spring.

It may not be Easter any more, but chicks are still cute when they’re on a tea cozy like the Little Chicks Tea Cozy from Yarnspirations. And if you’d rather have fruit than fowl on your table, try an apple or strawberry design.

If flowers are more your style, there’s the Flower Garden Tea Cozy from JustJen Knits (love the details on this one!) and the less literal Daffodil Stitch cozy from a 1937 pattern found on knitting-and.

And if your tastes run to the more whimsical, check out the Hobbit Cottage Tea Cozy from Have a Yarn or the Nemo pattern from Stratgem Addict. That might just be the thing to get my daughter to want to have a real tea party!

This one is not really spring but it is cute and it is an Elephant.

Using your yarn stash is important to me throughout the year, but as I start to feel the end of the year coming on I get more excited about using things I already have in the house. Maybe that’s because I don’t want to go to a store in the thick of holiday shopping times, or I like the idea of having a little space in my stash when the new year rolls around.

It’s super satisfying to use up all the little odd balls you’ve made over the year (or years), and I have several stash busting blankets I work on when it’s cold and will maybe finish someday.

If you’d like to start a stash busting project that’s perfect for using up odd balls, check out the Soukish pattern from Neisha Abdulla. This pattern is made for fingering weight/sock yarn, and it’s worked in a tube with allover color work.

This is great for a couple of reasons. You don’t really have to weave in your ends when you can hide them in a tube (this is one time you might even get by just tying a knot when you change colors!) and you can change colors whenever you run out of yarn and it will look good.

Of course the pattern is made with blocks where the designer changed colors, but you can change yours more or less often as you need to make it work for your stash. You can use blank charts to design your own color combinations, or even your own stitch patterns if you like. You can also adjust the length of the scarf as needed or turn it into a cowl based on the amount of yarn you have.

This project looks like a lot of fun and would be a great thing to have on hand to stitch up and then to wear during the cold, gloomy months.

You can get a copy of the pattern on Ravelry.
