These adorable knitted Easter Eggs are fun to make and a great way to use up leftover sock yarn!

You will need:
  • 2 to 2.75 mm double pointed needles (the smaller the needle, the tighter and smaller your egg will be and also the clearer the pattern will show up)
  • Patterned sock yarn (fingering or 4 ply weight) 50 g ball (or remnants will do)
  • Fibre fill or wool roving for stuffing finished egg
  • Darning needle


Abbreviations:
M1 = make one (knit into the horizontal bar between the stitch just knit and the next one)


Instructions:
Cast on 9sts on double pointed needles (3 per needle)
1st round: knit
2nd round: k2, *m1, k1* repeat * to * 6 times and finish with k1: 15 sts
3rd round: knit
4th round: k2, *M1, k1* repeat * to * 12 times , finish with k1: 27 sts

Cut yarn leaving enough yarn to thread through remaining 10 sts with a darning needle. Thread through but don’t pull tight until filling with stuffing, then sew up and make a loop hanger of extra yarn. You may also want to tighten up the end of the egg at the cast on edge.
