These pretty Easter egg pot holders with their charming tulip pattern are both decorative and practical. The cheerful, fresh colors brighten up any kitchen wall!

The pot holders are crocheted in double layers, so you can slip your hand inside for a better grip on pot lids.
The tulip pattern isn’t difficult and is explained in detail in the crochet pattern. To make these, you’ll need basic crochet skills such as chain stitches, single crochet, slip stitches, double crochet, half double crochet, magic ring, increases and decreases, and crocheting in rounds and rows.
You can find the crochet pattern here!

A cute bathroom decoration (especially during Easter) is the fun “Wolli the Bunny” cotton ball dispenser . The cotton balls are filled through a zipper at the bunny’s neck and can be removed from the back.
Wolli isn’t hard to crochet. He also makes a great little Easter gift!
