EGG-COLLECTION + CHICK

Note: The German version of this pattern is available through Etsy and DaWanda. :-)

✿ ✿ ✿
Are you in need of some Easter decoration? Here’s the perfect pattern for you!
With this pattern you can crochet whole eggs, egg-halves with jagged edges and chicks.

Eggs and Chicks are fast and easy to crochet. Whether single-colored or multicolored… let your imagination run free. :)

The Rainbow-Egg was inspired by the Umizoomi episode „Umi Egg Hunt“. My kids are huge fans and now so proud of their own Rainbow-Eggs. :)

You’ll find the following patterns/instructions within the Egg-Collection:

• whole Egg with round bottom
• whole Egg with flat bottom
• top Egg-Half
• bottom Egg-Half with round bottom
• bottom Egg-Half with flat bottom
• details on color-changes for whole Eggs (Rainbow-Egg)

• details on embroidering flowers/stars onto whole Eggs ✿ ✿ ✿
