Christmas Robin Tea Cosy
Number five is done, folks! This one took less than a day from start to finish. The pattern is free online and I think it's just about the funniest thing I've ever knit. I used scraps of 8ply yarn (held double throughout) on 5.5mm needles. It fits a fairly small teapot, so you'd have to size up the pattern for a bigger pot. The eyes and beak are cut out of felt, and the white pupils are buttons.

the funniest one yet, f'sure. I miss robins the most of all the birds form back home in England. Except maybe Thrushes because they sing so prettily.
