Check Out This Sweet Easter Chick Basket

I love tiny knitting projects, and for some reason wee little spring and Easter-related knitting patterns are among my favorites. I love designing them and knitting them and using them as decoration or tucking them into Easter baskets.

In the case of Gina Michele’s knit Easter chick, the project is the basket.

This little Garter Stitch beauty is worked in one piece, folded in half and partially sew together to leave its back open for holding goodies.

Of course you could stuff it and stitch it to make a little doll as well.

She used buttons for eyes but you could also use thread to make this project suitable for little ones.
