A review of the new Cut Out + Keep book

https://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/cut-out-plus-keep-book-review • Posted by Penny G.

The tutorial I tried was for something I really needed, a Cup Cosy. My DH bought me a special coffee cup a while ago, especially for taking to the ‘office’, i.e. the Planet Penny studio. The trouble is, its decorated with a face who’s expression is, well, somewhat troubling… And even the plastic cover supplied is a bit thin so you can still see it’s evil grin… So the Seattle project was just perfect. I made the cosy with undyed Blue Faced Leicester Aran weight yarn and it was a perfect fit. Not having a little motif to stitch on I added a lazy daisy flower with a few stitches after sewing it up. A much happier sight in the morning now (and hotter coffee!) Cheers…
