To get started crafting Eggbert, you’ll need the following materials: 3.25mm or 3US knitting needles; small amounts of double knit yarn in a variety of delightful colors: green, orange, red, light blue, and black; stuffing to give him shape; 2 x 20mm googly eyes for that adorable look; clear adhesive for easy assembly; and optional pipe cleaners—2 x 24cm or 9.5 inch lengths for movable arms, and 2 x 28cm or 11 inch lengths for movable legs.

This fun knitting project utilizes a variety of methods, including the thumb method for casting on, knit or garter stitch, purl, stocking stitch, and essential techniques such as KFB (knit into the front and back of the stitch), K2tog (knit two stitches together), P2tog (purl two stitches together), and cast off. Whether you're a knitting novice or a seasoned pro, creating your very own Eggbert will be an enjoyable experience! Get ready to add some flair to your Easter festivities with your colorful creation!
