How To: Yarn Wrapped Egg

I'm almost embarrassed to call this a tutorial because its so easy!
You will need:
Styrofoam egg
yarn
Glue or double sided tape
scissors
crochet hook

How to:
Cover your egg with some glue to hold the yarn in place (mine wasn't very strong so I also used double sided tape over parts of the egg).
Make a little hole in one end and poke the start of your yarn in.
Wrap your yarn around the egg, you can use a couple of colours if you like. Make sure you keep the oval egg shape or it will end up looking like a ball.
When you are finished pull your loose yarn end through the layers with a crochet hook for a neat finish.

I recommend these for display/decoration only as they may unwind will too much handling.

I hope you enjoyed this little series of decorated egg projects.
♥Enjoy your Easter ♥
