 TOOLS AND MATERIALS:
1. Yarn YarnArt Jeans of different colors

2. 1 mm hook (for toys)

3. 3 mm hook (for eggs)

4. Stuffing material

5. 2 buttons (around D=10 mm)

6. Needle and threads for sewing pieces

You can use any thin yarn you like! I used the indicated yarn for both toys

and eggs. Use bigger size hook for eggs crocheting. If you crochet a toy using 2

mm hook, crochet an egg with 3 mm hook. Given that, the yarn will be of the same

weight!

If you want a bigger size egg, simply work more increases and more rounds!

The finished toy size depends on your gauge, hook and yarn you use!

The limbs are sewn on
