Crochet Mini Easter Egg – Free Pattern

Created by ©BeejuiCreations 2018-2022

Crochet Mini Easter Egg – Free Pattern. It’s feeling very Spring like outside today with the sun shining and the little birds tweeting. With Easter only a few weeks away I have created these little Crochet Mini Easter Egg. Look how cute they are!

This is part of a crochet series where the initial pattern is the crocheted Easter egg.  The other patterns in this series are where we then turn the egg into this bunny, a chick and a carrot.  All created in DK yarn.  

You could use these as decorations or hide them for your Easter egg hunts. You could also make them into a keyring or add a piece of ribbon to the top and use them as home decor, you choose!

• Purple- I used a ball of lilac coloured yarn I found in my stash but can’t remember where I bought it from. Parma Violet Stylecraft Special DK yarn may be similar.
