Do you remember the Toatie Hottie kits that I designed last year? I’ve had several inquiries about them recently, and with the cold weather coming, I have now re-stocked my shop. With straightforward colourwork and jolly pompoms, folk generally seem to rather enjoy making this pattern (you can see some Ravelry project pages here). “Toatie” is Scots for “tiny” or “cute” and when knitted up these hot water bottle cosies are definitely both! The kit contains a hot water bottle of the precise dimensions specified in the pattern; Jamieson and Smith Shetland Heritage yarn; a printed pattern and a project bag. If you’d like a digitial PDF to accompany your print copy, just email me at info@katedaviesdesigns.com with your Ravelry username.
There are three colourways: indigo (blue) and madder (red) are pictured above, and theres also a third option – silver and moss – which proved rather popular last year
Toatie Hotties make great gifts, and whether you’d like to knit one for yourself or someone else, you’ll find the kits in my shop HERE!

Is the pattern written for machine knitting or for knitting on needles?

It is so lovely and I love to use these things, especially when I have to do hard work near my computer in winter or cool autumn time.

Dear Kate, Can you send me a free Bobble Hat pattern for the Campaign for Wool Bike Ride promotion? It will give you some great publicity. Best wishes Martin
