Good luck to this woman (above) but thanks should go to knitter Virginia Costello, who was responsible for the first Michael Tea Cosy, as featured in Broadsheet back in 2012 (top).  Virginia did it for fun, the love of knitting and saw no reason to copyright it. Credit where it’s due.

In fairness.

To enter, suggest one way Broadsheet.ie could improve. The most abusive heartfelt and useful offering wins the cosy.
