Home Sweet Home Tea Cosy


Looking out across a loch, surrounded by mountains is a little croft house with a red roof. This knitting pattern was inspired by that house which is located on the Applecross Peninsular, West Coast of Scotland. Along with fairisle motifs and horizontal pattern repeats this design makes an eye catching tea time piece.
