Egg Cozies - Hungry Fishes
Here's a little something for in between times: Colorful hungry fishes that have it in for your boiled eggs. Good thing their eyes where bigger than their stomaches (or in this case: their mouths). :)
Quickly crocheted and perfect to make good use of scrap-yarn.
Have fun with eyes (crocheted and/or embroidered) and teeth (round or pointy). You can even add a tongue. All of it is described in this pattern.
Create your own unique little swarm.
Skill Level: easy
Size: The size depends on your gauge, chosen type of yarn and crochet hook size. I'm using Puppets Lyric yarn (8/8, DK/Light-Worsted) from Coats and a 3 mm hook. With that I get the following size/s: 9 cm
used Techniques * magic ring * chain * single crochet * half double crochet * double crochet * slip stitch * increase and (invisible) decrease * crocheting in front loops (instructions included) * crocheting in back loops (instructions included) * crocheting back and forth in rows * crocheting in continuous rounds (rounds are not joined) * changing yarn-color (instructions included) * basic sewing (sewing on body-parts, closing openings etc) * basic embroidery (i.e. eyes, mouth etc)
The pattern is very detailed. Almost every single step/stitch is explained in words and pictures. Special characteristics are explained step-by-step (i.e. crocheting the teeth on). You see, nothing can go wrong! :)
