These egg cozies are super cute! This would be such a cute gift for any spring function you might be going to. I may have to be on the lookout for some yarn to make these. These would be a great alternative to painting your hard boiled eggs at Easter as well.

So very cute Easter chicks, but I had trouble with the tails until I found the solution on some forum and now reading it once again I see that I misread it as one piece per chick not four. Thanks for great pattern - happy Easter

will not print
