These adorable Easter Egg Chicken Cozies are a quick and satisfying project, perfect for using up small amounts of leftover yarn. Worked primarily in simple stockinette stitch, they are beginner-friendly and knit flat with minimal shaping.

Each chicken uses approximately 10g of worsted yarn.

Designed to fit a standard hen’s egg or a chocolate egg (ideal for Easter favours), they add a playful handmade touch to seasonal table settings and gift baskets.

They can also be lightly stuffed instead of holding an egg, turning them into small decorative Easter ornaments or mini amigurumi-style chicks.

Skill Level: Easy
Techniques used: Knit, purl, simple shaping
Construction: Knit flat and seamed

A fun, stash-busting project that’s perfect for last-minute Easter knitting or small handmade gifts.
