Crochet Easter Egg

By Lorraine

Is there a new little sweetheart in your family? Though not typical Easter colors I think this pink and blue crochet Easter egg makes a cute baby’s 1st Easter keepsake. You can make a solid color egg, use variegated yarn or choose any combination of colors for your egg.

Crochet Easter Egg

PRINT PATTERN

NOTE: When working in rounds, I mark the end of each round with a piece of contrasting yarn and move it as I complete each round.
Starting at the bottom of the egg
ch 3.  Join with sl st in 3rd ch from hook to form a ring
Rnd 1: Work 8 sc in ring
Rnd 2: *sc in next sc, inc in next sc. Repeat from *around (12 sc)
Rnd 3: Repeat rnd 2 (18 sc)
Rnd 4: sc in each sc around, increasing 1 sc in every 3rd sc. (24 sc)
Rnd 5: work even for one round  (24 sc)
Rnd 6: sc in each sc around; increasing in every 4th sc. (30 sc)
Rnd 7-8: work even for two rounds (30 sc)
Rnd 9: sc in each sc around, increasing in every 10th sc. (33 sc)
Rnd 10-15: work even (33 sc)

Rnd 16: sc in each sc around decreasing in every 10th sc (30 sc)Begin stuffing your egg.  You will need to add more at the end but I think you can get a better shape if you begin at this point.

Rnd 18: sc in each sc decreasing every 5th sc (25 sc)
Rnd 19-20: work even (25)

    Hi Lorraine,
    these crochet eggs are so pretty. I would like to try making them. Thank you a lot for the pattern and video tutorials. The videos are great, and it's nice to hear your voice. I started watching the videos, and I will watch the rest when my babies are in bed. You did a great job with the abbreviation chart and explanations in the video. I don't know much of "English crochet language", bu I think I can learn a lot just from your chart and the video.
    Thank you again!

    Lorraine, I recently bought some yarn and crochet hooks, and after 25+ years of not crocheting, I want to start. I still remembered how to make a chain and single crochet, and even a shellstitch. I am going to try to make these eggs! I love your tutorial. xo
