Knit Look Crochet Easter Egg
"Let's crochet a wonderful Easter project – a crochet Easter egg that looks like knit but crocheted with the waistcoat stitch! I made this egg with fingering weight yarn and a size J hook… not the normal size you’d see for this weight yarn, but for the waistcoat stitch it worked perfectly. So I made this egg with fingering weight yarn and a size J hook… not the normal size you’d see for this weight yarn, but for the waistcoat stitch it worked perfectly. I used leftover fingering weight yarn, as I mentioned above, but you can easily adjust this pattern to use any weight yarn you like, especially if you use fiber fill to stuff your egg with as it won’t have to fit around an egg shape.
