Crocheted Easter Eggs & Pattern

Crocheted Easter Eggs are so much fun and the pattern is super simple!

Crocheted_Easter_Eggs_Pattern

Most of you know that I love to crochet. I just have a hard time finding the time 🙂  This past weekend I set out to crochet some Easter eggs and developed this Crocheted Easter Egg pattern (after many futile attempts!) that makes eggs that are darn near the same size as a large egg and so fun to make! I think making this with bold and bright colors would be just beautiful too!

These Crocheted Easter Eggs are a great way to use up leftover yarn. I used some from baby blankets that I have made. You will also need some sort of filling – I used Poly-Fil.

I used an F hook and a variety of yarn. Change the colors where you wish to make your own unique Easter Egg!

Sc Dec = Single Crochet Decrease (Insert hook in first stitch, yo, pull up loop, insert hook in second stitch, yo, pull up loop, yo, pull thru remaining 3 loops on hook.)

Crocheted Easter Egg Pattern: 
Ch 3. Sl st to form ring.
Round 1: 5 sc in ring.
Round 1: 2 sc in each st around. (10 sc)
Round 3: (2 sc in next st, sc in next st) repeat 5 times. (15 sc)
Round 4: (2 sc in next st, sc in next 2 st) repeat 5 times. (20 sc)

Round 5: (2 sc in next st, sc in next 3 st) repeat 5 times. (25 sc)
(I usually turn the egg inside out around this point.)
Rounds 6-9:  sc in each st around (25 sc)
(Start stuffing the egg.)
Round 10:  (Sc Dec, sc in next 3 st)  repeat 5 times. (20 sc)

Round 11:  sc in each st around (20 sc)
Round 12:   (Sc Dec, sc in next 2 st)  repeat 5 times. (15 sc)
Round 13:  sc in each st around (15 sc)

Round 14:   (Sc Dec, sc in next st)  repeat 5 times. (10 sc)
(Finish stuffing egg.)
Round 15:  (Sc Dec) repeat 5 times (5 sc)
Thread yarn though remain stitches. Pull yarn through the top of the egg to finish off.

Flower Instructions:
Ch 4. Sl st to form ring.
(Ch 3, sc. to form a petal) Repeat until you have the desired number of petals. I did between 5-7.

    These are adorable! I whipped up two last night while watching TV with some pretty variegated yarn. Lovely! Thanks so much.
