You should now have 7 rows of (ruffles plus 2hdc rows). End off leaving a long tail for sewing.

Assembly:

Place the two pieces on your tea pot. With stitch markers mark the top and bottom of both the spout and the handle. Sew the top part closed and the bottom part closed.

You should now have a Tea cozy that fits snug on the spout and the handle but is OPEN on the top. To close the top you’ll need a long piece of yarn and a tapestry needle. Weave in and out the top (this is the last row crocheted #22) and then cinch it closed. Sew the rest of the ‘hole’ closed.
