Lilybelle’s Egg-stra special Egg cosies

This is a super easy pattern and a really cute gift this Easter. I’m making these little cuties for everyone this year ~ they are a hit with folks of all ages unlike the chocolate these will last a lot longer J
 

Yarn ~ any small amount of cotton or DK wool is perfect. You really don’t need much so this is an ideal project to use up leftover wool.

Hook Size ~ 4mm

Tip/tricks ~ This pattern works in continuous rounds so although not essential, it makes life a lot easier if you have a stitch marker for this project, if you don’t have one a safety pin works very well.

Abbreviations:

SC – Single Crochet (US)

Sc2tog – single crochet two together
