Coffee Cosy


My cafetiere holds 3 mugs full. Ed and I drink a mug every morning, and after the school run I re-heat the final cup and drink it. My sister Stephanie crocheted me this cafetiere cosy with yarn from my stash, and now I don't have to re-heat the last cup, it stays nice and hot until I am ready for it.

I use the cosy every day. It saves a little bit of energy, and it makes me smile. Thanks, Steph.

What a pleasant surprise to find your blog active again with a month of posts to catch up on. You've made my evening, thanks.

A friend gave us a padded Bodum jacket for our cafetiere which has proved very useful. However yours is much more colourful.

I love the idea of a padded jacket. Easy to make in just the right size. Does it fasten with velcro, Just Gai?

That makes me smile too. I must request my dear friend to knit one for me... as my family is heavily into tea :-)

I use a bright pink woolly bobble hat I found in the street as either a tea cosy or a coffee cosy, depending on which I'm drinking.

I love coffee and hard biscuit - they perfectly fit.
