Tired of storing or repurchasing breakable, bulky plastic Easter eggs for your egg hunt? These reusable Easter eggs might just solve your problem. This pattern includes stitch charts and written instructions for four sizes of egg, so that you can create the right size for any treat. The double fold pocket design keeps your treats secure the whole egg hunt long!

Each egg is constructed in one piece, with a single length of yarn, to make the process as quick and easy as possible. Once it’s constructed, the egg is folded and secured together with single crochets. There is no sewing, and at the end you should only have one thread to tuck.

Yarn Needed:
Any worsted/4/medium weight yarn
Small: 20 yards
Medium: 30 yards
Large: 40 yards
Extra Large: 50 yards

The Small Egg:
