@Authors,
2-3 patterns per author are enough. Don’t forget the link and image, as well as the necessary info.

You can make this Easter table runner in one weekend! Thanks to the airy filet technique (double crochet and chain stitches), the work goes quickly.

For the runner shown  (about 34 x 100 cm), you’ll need:

• 150 g cotton yarn (Catania- LL 125m/50g) in green
• 25 g cotton yarn (Catania - LL 125m/50g) in yellow
• 2.0 mm crochet hook

By repeating or leaving out a pattern repeat, the table runner can be made longer or shorter .

A cute Easter decoration that you can bring out again during the Christmas season:
The reversible doll “Nikolausi – Easter Bunny”!
By turning it inside out, the Easter bunny quickly transforms into St. Nicholas, and vice versa. (When my grandchildren are here, they always have fun turning the “wrong” doll inside out ;-))
The reversible doll is crocheted using cotton yarn (Catania) and some white fluffy yarn.

Still looking for a little something for the Easter basket—without chocolate? Then these cute Easter bunny finger puppets are just the thing!

They’re crocheted from just a few bits of leftover yarn and are finished in no time! They’ll still be in use even after Easter, because they’re perfect for acting out little everyday stories and making boring car rides or waiting times pass more quickly. You simply have to have them!

Socks are always a hit—and they look great in an Easter basket, too. You’ll really enjoy making these, because the mowi heel is super easy. It’s shown using the CraSyTrio in 4 different sizes. That way, you can treat the whole family to some socks right away.
