Hello, Reader! Spring has arrived here on the coast, and I’m enjoying the longer days and fresh ocean air around my new home. This time of year always inspires playful projects, so today I’m sharing three Springtime favorites with you, including my popular bunnies, sweet treats, and colorful egg cozies.
Knit a Bunny from a Square with my easy instructions! From just a simple knitted garter stitch square, you’ll shape a stuffed softie rabbit that quickly comes to life.
This project has become one of my most popular video tutorials on YouTube, with over 1.4 million views! Knitters love the surprising moment when the bunny shape suddenly appears from a basic square.
Even after making dozens of them, I still enjoy pulling the yarn to form the ears and watching the rabbit take shape.
“Your little bunny from a knitted square is delightful and so too was the little pom pom tail, didn't know you could make a mini pom pom with a fork - can't wait to try that! Fantastically clear instructions. Thank you so much.”
These adorable Creme Egg Covers are an easy yarn craft project that anyone can enjoy. Since they require no knitting skills at all, they’re a great activity to enjoy with friends and family.
It’s especially fun experimenting with different yarn colors to give each little character its own unique personality.
“This is such a cute idea! Can’t wait to try this one! You could definitely play with yarn colors with your leftover yarn from projects! Awesome idea!”
My Easter Bunny Egg Cozies are a fun, quick knit that looks great in baskets. Slip these festive little caps onto your eggs to turn them into Springtime Bunnies!
They can also brighten up your plain eggs all year round. This is a fun quick knit if you’re comfortable making small projects in the round on double-pointed needles.
I hope these projects inspire you to cast on something playful this week.
