Pancake Day Lady Tea Cosy and Knitting Pattern

Description

Pancakes aren’t just for Shrove Tuesday; they’re a year‑round treat. Whether you love classic crêpes, fluffy American buttermilk pancakes, airy Japanese soufflé pancakes or traditional Scotch pancakes, this charming tea cosy is the perfect teapot warmer for pancake lovers.

The design features a 1940s‑style lady wearing an old‑fashioned pinny edged with a delicate scalloped frill. Her hairstyle is authentically 1940s too, with a neat row of curls framing the bottom of her hairline.

In one hand she holds a frying pan with a pancake ready to flip, and in the other she carries a plate stacked high with pancakes and a traditional wedge of lemon; the classic Pancake Day topping of the era.

She’s a delightful, cheerful tea cosy who looks genuinely happy making pancakes. Whatever toppings you enjoy, lemon and sugar, maple syrup, chocolate spread or fruit; this Pancake Day lady will happily join you for Shrove Tuesday and any other day you fancy pancakes with your tea.

Flipping good fun for pancake lovers.
