Knitting Your Own Pufferfish Tea Cosy: A Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1: Gather Your Materials

Pufferfish Tea Cosy Knitting Pattern (available for Free Download online or through your local yarn store)
Worsted weight yarn in two colors (one for the body and one for the fins)
Knitting needles (size recommended in the pattern)
Yarn needle
Stuffing material (such as polyfill or cotton balls)

Step 2: Cast On and Knit the Body

Begin by casting on the number of stitches specified in the pattern. Then, knit in stockinette stitch (knit every row) until the body reaches the desired length.

Step 3: Shape the Head and Tail

To shape the head, decrease stitches on either side of the center stitch in each row until you have only a few stitches remaining. Bind off the remaining stitches.

To shape the tail, knit a triangle by increasing stitches on either side of the center stitch in each row. Bind off the stitches when the triangle reaches the desired size.

Step 4: Knit the Fins

Knit two identical fins by casting on a few stitches and knitting in garter stitch (knit every row) until the fins reach the desired size. Bind off the stitches.

Step 5: Assemble the Pufferfish

Sew the fins to the body, positioning them on either side of the head. Fill the body with stuffing material and sew the opening closed.

Step 6: Embroider the Eyes and Mouth

Use embroidery floss or yarn to embroider the eyes and mouth of the pufferfish. You can create any expression you like, from a mischievous grin to a sleepy-eyed look.
