Fairy Egg Baskets

These enchanting little fairy baskets are perfect for Easter celebrations! Crafted to hold miniature foiled eggs, these baskets are the ideal size for decorating your Easter tree or cleverly hiding around your garden during Eastertime. Each delightful fairy basket is worked flat in a lovely Moss Stitch, with detailed row-by-row instructions provided. We recommend using two colours of DK yarn knitted together, making it not only a fun project but one that takes only a few minutes to complete. If you’re interested in crafting Fairy Acorn Baskets, you can easily achieve this by utilizing double strands of brown DK yarn. These charming baskets add a whimsical touch to your Easter festivities.

A packet of mini chocolate Easter eggs (any brand), measuring 4 – 5cm in length, will fit these tiny fairy baskets perfectly, giving them a lead-in to delightful Easter surprises. Each basket has a diameter of 3cm, making them the ideal size for tiny treasures.

Please Note: The Easter egg cover is too small to hold a classic Creme Egg, so be sure to choose smaller treats for filling.

Whether you’re an experienced knitter or just starting out, these fairy baskets provide an engaging and quick project that's sure to bring joy to your holiday celebrations. Share your creativity and add a personal touch to your Easter decorations or create heartfelt gifts for loved ones. Start your knitting journey today and make these adorable fairy baskets a sweet part of your Easter traditions!
