Easter Egg Cozy

Today there was an Easter Tea andKnit party at the local yarn shop. The ladies there, Virginia and Kristen are so lovely. Mary and I used to frequent the shop most every week. We loved going in and touching the yarns, seeing the finished products completed by crafters so much more talented than myself. We discussed the yarns and the patterns and Mary encouraged me to expand myself. She wanted me to teach her to knit. I'll miss sharing with her. Perhaps I can use my knitting as a goal to help further the cause that Nina and I are going to format.

But I digress. Today I went to the Tea Party. There must have been about 30 women there. Virgina and Kristen opened their arms to me and expressed their grief at my losses. I just love that shop. It is going to be so hard to not walk over and buy more yarns... Perhaps I should prepare though because I will be having foot surgery in June. I will need projects.

At any rate, I was given a kit to make an Easter Egg cover. I wasn't able to start my cover while in the store but I did make it when I got home from my walk today. I love the yarns. The new yarns the store has in stock are delightful. I hope to pick up a few skiens to make some of my projects. And the colors - remind me so much of nature and are made of natural fibers. I should be able to work with them better than wool (less allergens).

My cover is so cute. My daughter loved my little egg cozy. She took a picture of it with her phone to send to her phone. This is a great idea of left over yarn. I could make them up in a night and stockpile them for Easter.

But yet perhaps the world will be filled with Easter Egg Cozy's. I may need to find another quick pattern to use for leftover yarns. All ideas...welcome.
