How to crochet Easter Bunny Egg

For this Bunny Egg I used acrylic yarn but you can use any yarn and hook size smaller than recommended on yarn label. I used X single crochet stitch to make better shape, you can still use normal single crochet.  You can add more details such as tail and paws to make it look like a Bunny.

Crochet Bunny from a Square in 30 minutes

Image
This is a super easy pattern for crochet Bunnies. I personally spend 20 to 30 minutes to make one bunny. First, you can crochet any kind of size of square or even with any kind of crochet stitch, but I prefer single crochet.  If you prefer, you can even knit a square.   Watch my video tutorial to see exact instructions how to transform a square into a bunny.  For the tail, I decided to make a pom-pom but you can also crochet a small ball or use pom-pom from craft shops.  The paws are effortless and can be optional or make a few stitches with tapestry needle. Watch my way of making paws in the video.  You can use any type of eyes or even make embroidery eyes.  I also think that with ribbon, the bunnies look cuter. HERE THE VIDEO TUTORIAL:

crochet is anti-stress and excellent gymnastics for the mind, according to science

Image
Once it was necessary to crochet to make winter garments, now it is a pastime that, according to science, is good for the mind and body.  Those who habitually practice this activity for leisure know well how relaxing it is to sit in an armchair in the evening and dedicate at least an hour to creating your own creation. It is no coincidence that knitting and crochet is back in fashion, also becoming popular with young people who enjoy creating interesting DIY items.

Crochet Granny Square Waffle Stitch

Image
I think this is a perfect granny square as it combines two most favorite iconic crochet features, Granny square and waffle stitch. Granny squares are really versatile and can be used in various crochet projects. Crochet waffle stitch is so beautiful, and it combines work of two rows. One row is on one side, and then you switch to the other side.  I started with magic ring but instead of magic ring you can use chain of 5 and slip stitch into a circle. The corner is different on one side ( 2 double crochet, chain 1, 2 double crochet), on the other side ( 1 double crochet, chain 1, 1 double crochet). For these squares I used cotton and 3.5 mm crochet hook, but you can use whatever yarn and a matchable hook size.  Here the video tutorial:

How to crochet a Bag/ Shoulder Bag

Have you ever thought of crocheting a bag? Crochet bags are very popular nowadays.  You can crochet them with variety of different types of yarn, cords and etc. I am going to share with you extremely beautiful and easy to make shoulder bag.  This bag can be crochet even without lining later as it has no big wholes thanks to very indicative pattern that reminds macrame style bags.  I used Barbante cotton yarn and crochet hook 5 mm. You can actually crochet with any hook size and any yarn. If you use thinner yarn then you must chain more to get the same size of my bag. Measurements of the bag: 20*17cm The length of shoulder strap is 100 cm, but depends on your personal preferences. You can customize the size if the bag.  Instead of button, you can attach the zipper or any other bag lock system of your choice. Here the video tutorial:

Fingerless Gloves or mittens are the perfect solution for those who don't like mittens or gloves.  Crochet Fingerless Gloves are very easy to make and require little yarn. It is very easy to make them customizable due to the fact that you just need to measure around your wrist. In my video tutorial, I am showing how to make perfect mittens for you.
