Easter will soon be here, I still have so many treasures to make for my little ones, I thought I would share this Easter rabbit egg cozy knitting pattern with you. He knits up so quickly:) I have knitted this one in a bamboo yarn, so soft, but any leftover yarn will be perfect for this small project. You could even add a little nose and eyes with fleece and a felting needle, I just decided to leave this one plain:) He took about half an hour to make this morning while I was busy preparing lunch. When I had a moment, I would quickly pick up my knitting and add a few more rows. I have been looking for an easy crochet pattern for slippers, if anyone knows of one, won't you please point me in that direction, thank you so much.
What Easter projects are you busy with at the moment?Enjoy!

ReplyDeleteThis is too cute!! I definitely want to try it. I have a hard time finding egg cups though. :) We used to have a set of pottery ones growing up. Maybe those would end up broken, though!
ReplyDeleteAlso, I am so curious about needlefelting! Really want to learn how to do that :)
ReplyDeleteCharmed again. I'm going to have to make a bunch of these and figure out exactly how I'm going to use them. The ears. YAY the ears!!
ReplyDeleteThis is really cute! Thanks for posting. Can I utilize your pattern?

ReplyDeleteOh how cute!
ReplyDeleteI am lately obsessed with egg cozies, sadly we dont have egg cups! (though we do use some old shot glasses sometimes)
ReplyDeleteI am deep into easter knitting making whole bunnies, bunny cozies and hopefully some felted egg critters. And this week we start our easter crafting with felted eggs!
Shhhhhh! Don't tell my baby girl. I knit her a little bunny with a hoodie sweater. It will appear in her basket Easter morning.
