We love our Unicorn parties around here so much that we decided to create our own DIY Unicorn Party  Pinterest board. Which means we have literally 100’s of our favorite Unicorn ideas, party decorations, Unicorn cakes and other Unicorn tutorials and crafts all in one spot. You can check them all out here DIY Party Ideas – Unicorn.

Did you know the first written account of a unicorn in Western literature comes from the Greek doctor Ctesias in the 4th century While traveling through Persia he heard tales of a single-horned horse roaming the eastern part of the world from fellow travelers, and thus began the Unicorn fable, or so the story goes. I know a whole bunch of 3-year-olds who believe that Unicorns are real.

Whether you are looking for a rainbow unicorn theme or a pink theme these ideas would fit perfectly! Setting up a Unicorn party is so easy as so many stores stock Rainbow and Unicorn Party Supplies and decorations, but we love a DIY party so here you go.

Easy Easter Egg Knitting Patterns

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.
