first finished object of ought nine

What is it? It’s a tea cozy. I’m not sure why I’d been putting off knitting one, since I’ve really needed one for a while. I finally searched out a pattern yesterday afternoon and just whipped it up. Started yesterday, finished yesterday. It was so quick and satisfying.  I’m so ridiculously pleased with how it turned out.

cozyHere it is with the teapot what needed coverin’. It’s a really old teapot. My dad’s mom gave it to me when I moved out of the house into my own apartment. I think it’s from the 30′s. That’s what she thought, anyhow. They did things right back then – it doesn’t drip at ALL.

cozy as well

And here they are together. So cute. I haven’t decided if I’m giong to sew that little tail at the top down or not – I kind of like it standing up like that in all its wonky glory.
