Textured and brightly coloured Easter Egg decorations for your home. Easy to make, they can be knitted from any chunky yarn you have in your stash- the free pattern is available on our website.
The eggs are knitted flat on 4mm knitting needles and incorporate Irish Moss Stitch (how to do this is explained in the pattern)

You Will Need:

Small amounts of chunky yarn in the colours of your choice. We used Stylecraft Special Chunky in Rose (pink) and Aspen (green) and a small amount of Scheepjes Chunky Monkey in colour 1068 (the bright blue) and Paintbox Simply Chunky in Washed Teal 332 (the light greeny-blue)
You can also make these eggs in single colours- to do this just ignore the instructions for changing colours throughout the pattern. The single-colour egg pictured was knitted in Rico Designs Essentials Mega Wool Chunky in Lilac (colour code 008)
4mm straight knitting needles
Toy stuffing
