~Easter Chicks~

I've been knitting these chicks for a few weeks now in preparation for Easter.


They're the one that hide a Creme Egg inside. A free pattern and tutorial for them can be found on Susan's blog Evie's Gran.
I've used leftovers of Debbie Bliss Cashmerino in various colours as well as yellow.  These ones are also sat on yummy Lindt mini-eggs too, and are for the small folk in our family.

I'm taking this clutch of chicks to work this week to hopefully sell to my lovely colleagues.

I especially love the little beige one desperately peeping over the  yellow chick 2nd from the right.
Come on Spring weather, where are you? With snow about here in Yorkshire again, I'm tempted to make them all a woolly scarf.

  2. These are so sweet Sally, lucky work colleagues, I'm sure they'll be mad for them. I like the front one third from the left, looks very cheeky! x

  8. What beautiful little chicks :)
    I recently discovered a pattern for these too, just not really in time to make many for Easter. Hopefully I will be more organised for next year.
    I especially love the non yellow ones, I hadn't thought of doing them in other colours but I definitely will now.

    Have a lovely Easter!
