A 31-page crochet pattern with lots of pictures!
Difficulty level: medium, but easy to follow thanks to the many pictures. These sheep shouldn’t be your first crochet project. To give the sheep a better fleece look, I use “bobble stitches.” I explain this technique at the beginning of the pattern and illustrate it with pictures, so you’ll pick it up in no time ;-). All the other steps are also illustrated and explained with plenty of pictures, making the pattern easy for everyone to follow.

With the “Marilla” egg cozy, shaped like an upside-down flower, you’ll add a delicate splash of color and a spring-like atmosphere to your breakfast table. Since only basic crochet skills are required, these egg cozies are a great, quick project for ambitious beginner crocheters . Special techniques like picot stitches are explained in detail in the pattern. All you need is leftover yarn in three colors.

 

By the way: The “Marilla” egg cozy is also available as part of the “Marilla” breakfast set of the same name, which includes a placemat, a cutlery pouch, and an egg cozy. Feel free to check out my Shop :-)
