The main body of the teapot cosy, bodice & head are knitted all in one. This means, no wobbly heads... The jerkin is knitted in dark grey & light grey, with the bottom half a simple skirt, put over the main body of the cosy.
The Surcoat is a rich maroon colour, with lines of mustard knitted into the design to represent the gold detail in the portrait of Henry VIII. This is lined with a moss stitch edging, to represent fur. The surcoat & arms are detachable from the main body, so makes washing the teapot cosy easy.
The cap & simple wool cords finish off the teapot cosy.
I am hoping to one day knit Henry's wives...
