      Easter Ornaments

      (make 2) (to fit polystyrene egg 7” around)

      R1: Make magic loop.
      ch3, 11tr into loop, join. (12st)

      R2: ch3, 1tr into same space as ch
      2tr into each space to end, join. (24st)

      R3: ch3, 2tr into same space as ch
      3tr into each space around, join. (36st)

      R4: ch3, 2tr into same space as ch
      3tr into each space around, join. (36st)

      (R5 - as R4)

      Final round: ch1, 1dc into same st as ch.
      1dc into each stitch to end - except for 4 tr into 4 st that will form pointy part of egg. Join

      Once both halves completed, place around egg, making sure trebles are together at pointy end. Stitch together.
      (R5 is optional, depending on size of egg/hook/yarn)

        I don't I'm afraid - I tried a couple of patterns I found online (Hobbycraft do one) but I ended up making up my own.

        @Mary Hinton: That's great, Mary. I don't suppose you'd consider sharing your pattern?
