January KAL Pattern

We’re starting things off with a knit along (KAL) for January. The January cozy will be the Aran Sweater Tea Cozy by Patons. This pattern is also available on Ravelry.

I’m relatively new to cables so this pattern is a bit scary for me, but I could definitely use the practice, and it’s so pretty! For now, let’s gather materials and make a gauge swatch.

Materials

The materials needed for this pattern are:

  • 208yds / 190m of worsted weight yarn. The recommended yarn is Patons Décor
  • Size 7 (4.5mm) needles – or size needed for gauge
  • Set of double-pointed needles (or circular needles) in the same size
  • Cable needle
  • Stitch holder
  • 3 toggle buttons

Most of the pattern is worked flat, with only the sleeves knit in the round. The instructions are written for double-pointed needles, but 2 sets of circular needles or the magic loop technique could certainly be used instead.

Share Your Choices

I will be using this as a stashbusting opportunity but have not yet decided which yarn to use. Which yarn and buttons will you choose? Share the pictures with the hashtag #Tea_Cozy_Tuesday.
