What you need to know

There's nothing more wonderfully British than pouring a steaming hot cup of tea. And where would we be in this modern age without some properly brewed coffee to kick-start the day? This winter, it's time to treat your well-loved kitchen sets to some knitted love of their own. Designed by Helen Ardley, you can make yourself a matching cosy for your teapot, cafetiere and favourite mug. Each has a simple cable edging and a pretty embroidered snowflake motif.

For people using a Mac or an iPad, remember you will need a zip file app to download the pattern. Check out iZip, a free program that you can download onto your device.
