Crochet Easter Eggs
Posted by vicki brown on
Hello!
I've just whipped a few of these little crochet amigurumi eggs last minute to pop on our Easter tree and they are such a quick make I thought I would share my pattern with you in case you too are in need of some joyful crochet this long weekend.
They use such a small quantity of yarn they would be great for using up colourful leftovers.
I have written them up in two sizes, one slightly bigger than the other. You can stuff them or keep them flat. I did a bit of both for mine - I stuffed mine with my yarn ends that I store away for such purposes.
MATERIALS
- DK weight yarn - any DK weight yarn would work - in fact I'm sure any yarn would work here - but the size would vary if you changed up the yarn thickness. I used a 10g mini skein and made 3 eggs with a little left over.
- 4.5mm hook
- tapestry needle
- stuffing (optional)
ABBREVIATIONS - the pattern is written in UK terms - US terms can be found in brackets below.
dc - Double Crochet (Single Crochet)
dc2tog - Double Crochet (Single Crochet) two stitches together
rep - Repeat
rnd - Round
sl st - Slip Stitch
st - Stitch
PATTERN
SIZE SMALL
Rnd 1: Make a magic loop, work 6dc into loop, place marker, do NOT join or turn here or throughout. 6sts

HOW I RECOVERED MY LOST CRYPTOS FROM FAKE BROKER ONLINE
Praise be to the incredible hacker CYBERNOX GREYHAT SECURITY. I came across a lot of Testimonies about CYBERNOX GREYHAT SECURITY. I had lost over $750,000 by someone I met online on a fake investment project. After the loss, I had a long research on how to recover the lost funds. I contacted them providing the necessary information and it took CYBERNOX GREYHAT SECURITY about 24hours to locate and help recover my stolen money. Their team was supportive, communicated well. If you ever find yourself in a similar circumstance, I highly recommend contacting CYBERNOX GREYHAT SECURITY.
