Gracious knits - Birthday edition No. 2

It was my friend Sarah's birthday recently, and being so close to the cardigan project I didn't have time to make her anything in advance, so I took a request from her and created this:

Pokeball tea cosy! Trying to think of puns to do with this I decided that Tanninmon was a really good pokemon name, also Assamsaur.
I used this pattern for a child's hat and split it in half over straight needles.
Tea cosies are a lot of fun to make, especially when you know there won't be another one quite like it. It also makes me feel oddly smug to make something entirely from my existing stash and not have to pop to the market for finishing bits.
