Easter is a cheerful time when we celebrate with colorful eggs and sweet bunnies. Decorating your home can make this special day even more fun.

Blocking
Creater definitely recommend blocking your finished eggs so that they hang nicely.
Materials
- Blocking mat
- Rust proof pins
- Spray bottle filled with water
Pin your crochet eggs into shape on the blocking mat.
Spray with water until damp and leave to air dry completely.
Finishing
- To join the eggs and make into a garland, simply chain your desired amount and sl st through the centre top of each egg (the middle tr st).
- For the small garland that I made, I started by chaining 30 and spacing my eggs 20 chains apart.
