Over Easy Egg Cosy

This is a tiny project which a beginner can enjoy. It is perfect for a young knitter to embellish liberally with buttons, beads or flowers.

Ideal for using up oddments of yarn, it’s also a lovely way to squeeze every last bit of use out of a favourite skein. Garter stitch is perfect for showing off variegated yarn. It’s a better way to admire a little souvenir of luxury yarn than buried in your stash. A precious yarn can elevate a very simple cosy into a tiny luxury present.

The only skills you need are cast on, knit & cast off - including for the flower.
