If you get your eggs from a farm or buy organic, cage-free or free-range eggs at the grocery store, chances are your eggs are brown. This is great for the chickens, but not great for dyeing eggs bright colors. It’s cool. I’ve got your Easter eggs covered.
Covered with hats! These are the yokes, folks.
(Sorry. I haven’t had much sleep.)
The pattern is available to download on Ravelry for the low low price of free. It’s also available on my free patterns page right at the top for convenience.
Each hat takes about 30 minutes from start to finish and uses a tiny bit of sport weight yarn. The pink one with the folded brim and pompom only weighs four grams. In addition, this may be the easiest pattern I’ve ever written and there are endless variations.
Happy Easter! Happy spring! If you make an EggHead, I’d love to see it.
You’re too clever. (:
We’re not doing eggs this year – no one eats them boiled except on salad around here. That and we don’t really do easter. However, I may have to make some wee egg hats anyway. Just because they’re so cute!
So CUTE !!! I’ll have to tell my sister, she is the knitter 🙂
These are fab! Hope you don’t mind but I’ve posted about them on my blog & have linked back to you
An egg with a mustache? There’s a first! 🙂 Thanks for the great pattern Emily!

hysterical. Sorry you are short on sleep…..but my so creative none the less! get some zzzz’s
Yay! I just bought some “regular” eggs today for dyeing; hats are a great idea!
o.m.g. Just precious.
Such fun. Perhaps lack of sleep leads to creativity? If so, why isn’t working for me?
They are very cute! If only I was more organised…
