Hi all. There's more Easter craft of mine I'd like you to see ;) I'm still fascinated with Arne and Carlos' Easter knits so for Easter this year I made the 4 new Easter knits:
In fact I knitted the "shells" for these eggs / balls last year but couldn't get motivated to finish them off so they had to wait all year to be finished off this Easter. I steamed them, stuffed with polyester and attached the strings. Ta-dah! Ready to join my knitted Easter decoration :D
They are all knitted with double pointed needles and Dalegarn yarns: Lerke, Heilo and Falk :) I just love how these colours come out in knitted patterns. Very eye-catching, I must admit. The stripey egg is my first own designed pattern :)
In the next post I'll show you my Easter tree with knitted eggs and balls :D
Have a good day and thank you for comments x
They are beautiful, I think the little chicks are my favourite.

I love them all, but I think the chick is my absolute favourite although I'm also impressed with the one you designed the pattern for. How clever you are x
