I completed this reversible tea cozy this weekend. It is knitted with a yarn that is mostly wool. An iridescent fiber is added to the yarn which gives off the sparkle The edges are trimmed are in crochet. I like using wool which keeps the teapot warmer than many fibers. Making a lining also aids the teapot in keeping warm. If I am going to line the cozy, why not make the lining reversible? There is a pom pom to tie on the top loops on either side, or a jewel to hang. My sister made the cameo jewel. I am not much of a jewelry maker. I love jewelry, but I can't wear it due to allergies.
This yarn happens to be machine washable, but the toppers need to removed. I always recommend to hand wash handmade items, even if the yarn is machine washable. Do you like the crazy looking tea cozies or the more traditional looking cozies?
