Easter Egg Ornaments to Knit

There are lots of knitting patterns out there for knit Easter eggs, but I really like these from Purl Soho. They have a nice egg shape and look to be about the size of real eggs, and the design options are really pretty, too.

Eggs are a great stash busting project because they don’t take a lot of any one kind of yarn, and if your main color is the same or similar on several eggs they will look like they go together even if the colorwork (stripes or duplicate stitch designs) is done in different colors.

Bonus: knitting a bunch of these gives you a great excuse to start an Easter tree if you don’t already have one.

Head to Purl Soho to get the patterns and all the details.

Linen stitch is one of my favorite knitting stitch patterns that, every time I use it in a project, I think about how I don’t use it often enough.

It’s an easy stitch to make, with slip stitches done with the yarn held to the front of the work on the right/front side and to the back on the wrong/back side, which makes the strand of yarn a visible part of the pattern.

It also makes a fabric that is thick and looks kind of like a woven fabric.

I recently used linen stitch to make a double-thick pot holder, which I worked in a kind of interesting way. I didn’t want to have to do any sewing on the project, so I started it from a crochet cast on and picked up stitches from the side of the cast on to make the hot pad all in one piece in the round with the edge sealed.

This requires working on two circular needles, which is another technique I don’t use that often and am always reminded how much I like it when I do.

The combination of double thickness and the stitch pattern makes for a hot pad that’s already pretty thick, but I also added a bit of old towel to the inside before I closed up the end to make it super thick and extra protective for your surfaces.

I found the engineering challenge of this construction method to be a lot of fun, but you could also just knit it as a tube (casting on twice as many stitches as I did) and sew up the ends by hand when the knitting is done. Either way you’ve got a useful and pretty addition to your kitchen, whether you work it in a solid color, stripes or as a stash busting project will all your cotton odd balls.
