An eco-friendly crochet kit to make a set of six beautiful eggs in organic cotton.
It is identical in every way to my full-price Egg Crochet Kit, except that each mini skein of the organic cotton, rather than being one single length of yarn, will be made up of two or three separate lengths. You will receive exactly the same amount of yarn as in my full-price kit (in fact I allow more for the additional joins), but it will be in several indeterminate lengths.
This kit is ideal for ideal for advanced beginner or experienced crocheters who have no problem joining yarn as they work.
Using up odd lengths of yarn too short for my regular kits is a great way for me to reduce waste while offering you a saving!
- fully-illustrated pattern printed on recycled paper
- organic cotton yarn in six colours
- 100% natural British sheep’s wool stuffing
- 3.5mm crochet hook (optional)
- blunt-tipped yarn needle
The eggs are made using a 3.5mm (E-4) crochet hook. I offer lovely bamboo crochet hooks by Pony if you’d like to try one.
The finished eggs are approximately 5.5cm or 2¼” long.
The contents and packaging of all my crochet kits aims to be as eco-friendly as I can possibly make it. This kit is plastic-free.
- box – 70% recycled, reusable and recyclable.
- ball bands, box labels – 100% recycled paper, recyclable.
- pattern – 100% recycled paper, recyclable.
- tissue – 100% recycled, recyclable.
- business cards, tags, etc – handmade from greeting cards, cereal packets, etc, recyclable.
The carded wool stuffing is a natural product. It is scoured and clean, but may still include the odd bit of leaf or straw.
🟩 The egg pattern is suitable for those just beginning to crochet: it uses only the UK dc / US sc stitch and its decrease. It’s a perfect project for practising working in the round and preparing for more complex amigurumi projects. However, this ‘seconds’ kit will require you to make a number of extra joins. This is great practice at joining whilst keeping your tension and stitches even, but if you think this might be difficult for you, my standard Egg Crochet Kit will be more suitable.
The crochet pattern for these eggs is also available as an instant download if you prefer.
