Getting Started

• Yarn and Hook: Use DK weight yarn (weight 3) and a 3 mm crochet hook.
• Stitch Terminology: The pattern uses US crochet terminology.
• The final piece is made by creating two identical pieces and sewing them together.

Foundation (Coral Pink/Main Color)

• Start with a chain of four.
• Join the first and last chains with a slip stitch to form a loop.
• Chain four.
• Work a double crochet into the center of the loop.
• Chain one.
• Repeat the "double crochet, chain one" sequence six more times. This should create a total of eight spokes.
• Slip stitch into the third chain of the initial chain-four to close the round.

• Switch to your second color by yarning over and pulling it through.
• Chain one.
• Work two single crochets into the same chain-one space.

Assembly and Finishing

• Fasten off and cut the yarn, leaving a long tail for sewing.
• Repeat all the steps to create a second identical piece.
• Align the two pieces so the five-double-crochet sections are at the top, and sew them together around the edge.
• Use the remaining long yarn tail to create a hanging loop at the top of the egg.
• Tie off and weave in any remaining ends.
• Stuff with a polystyrene egg or a similar filling.
