Ernie Egg

Meet Ernie Egg, your new knitting companion this Easter! Inspired by the nostalgia of painting eggs as a child, I crafted Ernie to embody the fun and creativity of those cherished memories. What began as a simple painted egg quickly transformed into this whimsical character, complete with his own charming face. I hope you enjoy knitting him as much as I did!

Measuring approximately 5 inches tall (not including his legs or hair), Ernie is the perfect addition to your Easter decorations or a delightful gift for loved ones. You can easily knit him using any egg-colored DK yarn, or feel free to unleash your creativity and opt for more vibrant and colorful yarns. The best part? It only requires small amounts of yarn, making it an ideal project for using up your scraps!

For this project, I used 3mm knitting needles, but don't worry too much about tension—Ernie is meant to be a fun, flexible project. So gather your yarn and needles, and let’s get started on creating your very own Ernie Egg!

Whether you’re a seasoned knitters or just starting out, this joyful knitting pattern is perfect for all skill levels. Join the celebration of Easter with Ernie Egg, and bring a touch of handmade charm to your festivities!
