An eco-friendly crochet kit to make a set of six beautiful eggs in organic cotton.
Crocheting these eggs is a great introduction to 3-D and amigurumi crochet and the kit makes a great sustainable gift for a crafter.
- 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 don’t have one or are giving the kit as a gift.
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.
🟩 This pattern is suitable for those just beginning to crochet. It only uses 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.
Those who have never crocheted before might be interested in my Crochet Starter Kit.
The crochet pattern for these eggs is also available as an instant download if you prefer.
