Crafty Easter Egg

Published by raesmom at 4:09 pm under Foodie Edit This

Easter is fast approaching, so in honor of Easter, I came up with a small crocheted Easter egg pattern. This is a simple pattern and can be made in less than 30 minutes. So if you are tired of those plastic eggs or not a fan of hard boiled eggs, then give these eggs a try.

What you’ll need:

3.75 crochet hook (or use a small size)\
baby yarn(double knitting yarn)

Chain 2
Work 6 single crochet(sc) into first chain. join together
Work 2 sc into each stitch(12 stitches)
SC 1 and in the next stitch 2 SC. join (18 stitches)
SC for five rounds(5 rnds of single crochet adding no extra stitches)
SC 1 sc2tog(single crochet next two stitches to together) join(12)
Sc2tog for round
stuff egg with poly-fill
continue to decrease stitches to close up egg

You may have to move the fiberfill around for more of an egg shape.
