Fun
egg cozies all year round! Plus, they are an
ideal way to use up leftover yarn.
Quick and easy to knit in one evening in front of the TV, they are 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. Decorations can be added as desired and according to your own creativity.
Materials:
Basically, any yarn can be used with a slightly smaller needle size than stated on the ball band.
1 egg cozy: approx. 10 g – 15 g yarn leftover + 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 sewing 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.
