Knitted Poppy Tea Cosy - Version 2

 
This tea cosy was knitted to remember the soldiers lost in the First World War – on both sides – but particularly my great grandfather Thomas Wade who was killed in 1917.
The tea cosy is very simple – a basic green tea cosy with 5 knitted poppies on top.  I have used buttons for the centres to add a bit of texture.
It is likely that I will come up with some more poppy-based designs during the next 4 years!
