DIY Skywalker Saga Party Ideas For Tweenagers

One of the sweetest and smallest knitting projects you can make for spring is to knit up some Easter eggs. If you’re comfortable with knitting in the round, knitting an egg will take you almost no time at all. And if you’re not comfortable with knitting in the round, these easy Easter egg knitting patterns are a great place to start.

Probably the quickest and easiest pattern for Easter eggs I’ve seen is from Marianna’s Lazy Daisy Days. She has two versions, large and small, but neither one will take long to knit. The pattern is plain but you can embellish them any way you like. Add stripes as you stitch, sew on themed buttons, embroider on the surface…check the post to see a lot of possibilities!

Another really easy pattern is by Emily Kintigh of Aunty Em’s Studio. These worsted weight cuties are offered in a striped and a solid version, or you could try stitching them with self-striping yarn.

Speaking of self-striping yarn, why not use up your leftover bits of self-striping and self-patterning sock yarn to make one of a kind Easter eggs? This pattern from Knitting and So On is available in English and German.

If you have leftovers in lots of different weights, try this any gauge Easter egg knitting pattern from Kay Clair Goodies on Etsy. The originals were done in sock yarn but you can make them different sizes by using different weights and a needle a size smaller than you normally would for that yarn.

Add a variety of simple colorwork designs to your eggs with this pattern from Little Red Window on Etsy. The pattern offers five different designs as well as solid colors, and the designer says you should be able to knit an egg in about 20 minutes, so you’ll have a dozen in no time!

Another pattern with lots of pretty colorwork options is this one from Little Cotton Rabbits. It’s worked flat and is designed to be stitched around a polystyrene egg. If you don’t use something that’s already egg shaped, you’ll need to take care that your finished project is stuffed well so it looks like an egg.
