Last-Minute Egg Cozy BIGGI - quick and easy to knit


(To purchase/download, please click the image)

Funny egg cozies, not just for Easter! They are an ideal way to use up leftover yarn.

Quick and easy to knit in one TV evening, they make a last-minute little gift for any occasion.

Basic knitting skills are enough.
We knit in the round with a set of double-pointed needles. If you don't want to do a double long-tail cast-on, you can alternatively knit 4 rounds in garter stitch so the egg cozy doesn't roll up. Decorations are possible according to your wishes and your own creativity.

Material:
Basically, any yarn can be used with a slightly smaller needle size than stated on the label.

1 egg cozy: approx. 10 g – 15 g yarn (leftover) + little bits of leftover yarn for decorating;
here: set of double-pointed needles size 4.0 and crochet hook approx. 3.0 for “knotting in hair”;
yarn needle for weaving in ends, sewing needle and buttons if needed, measuring tape, scissors.
Recommendation: safety eyes if the egg cozies are used as amigurumi for small children.

Included in the PDF download:

• Short pattern in text form, written for yarns with approx. 105 m length per 50 g
• Step-by-step illustrated pattern, written for yarns with approx. 85 m length per 50 g

each knitted with a set of double-pointed needles size 4.0 (then the egg cozies turn out nicely dense and stand up on their own)

• Photo tutorial “Embroidering in duplicate stitch”
• Photo tutorial “Knotting in hair with a crochet hook"
  
• Separate PDF pattern for the “Double long-tail cast-on”

LOOK IT UP instead of calculating - PDF chart for knitting and crochet



(To purchase/download, please click the image)

Here it is - the much-requested PDF chart for determining the number of stitches to cast on:
LOOK IT UP instead of calculating - whether printed out or on a smartphone, always at hand - this PDF chart is simply practical on the go.

You crochet or knit your gauge swatch (at least 10 cm x 10 cm), count how many stitches make 10 cm for you, and can then conveniently look up in the chart how many stitches you need to cast on for your desired measurement.

However, if you want exact calculations with “divisible by” specifications - as is usually required for stitch patterns - you can do this using this Excel chart Gauge Conversion Chart - Knitting and Crochet . For this, a spreadsheet program is then required (if you don't have Excel: e.g. LibreOffice is available as a free download on the web). This chart based on calculated formulas is available here (click me).

More charts/calculation aids are available in my collection (click me).
Feel free to browse my Shop (klick mich).


Best of luck with all your projects!

Brand new and exclusive on Crazypatterns: The triangular shawl "Dream about Summer". 

It’s the ideal companion for the waiting time until summer finally arrives. The shawl keeps you warm on cooler days and makes a lovely accessory all year round.

The pattern describes the first 8 rows of the shawl step by step and with plenty of pictures; after that, the pattern repeat can be worked as often as needed until it is large enough.



For the shawl shown, I used approx. 750 m of 4-ply gradient yarn (50% cotton, 50% polyacrylic) and a 3 mm crochet hook, but the pattern can also be crocheted with any other yarn.

You should know the following: chain stitches, single crochet, double crochet, treble crochet

Have fun making it :)

Lightweight slippers/slipper socks in a moccasin design.
Now that it’s not so cold anymore, these slipper socks are just right. They’re not too thick, yet they keep your feet warm. Plus, they look chic, too.
You’ll need about 50 g in the main color and leftover yarn for the accent color. The slippers are very easy to knit if you know how to knit with a set of double-pointed needles. You don’t have to deal with the tedious heel section.
