How to Crochet Eggs & Bacon

Eggs & Bacon Crochet Pattern by: Madison – Schutt Farms

Eggs and bacon

MATERIALS

This post may contain affiliate links. This means that if you purchase products through these links, I may receive commission at no extra cost to you.

Crochet Hook size G, 4.00 mm., scissors and tapestry needle (to assemble and weave in ends).

If you’re new to crochet, you can get started building your tools with this set of hooks from Amazon. You get the most product for your money.

If you already have a lot of hooks, just not in size G yet, you can order just this hook. I would suggest in investing in an ergonomic hook with a larger handle. Almost all my food creations use this size hook, so it is a worth it upgrade.

Medium, Size 4 Yarn

Here are the brand and colors I used, but similar colors in other size 4 yarn will yield similar results. Brand: I love this cotton (sold at Hobby Lobby). Colors #: 6 White, 82 Burnt Sienna, 326 Curry

STITCHES/ABBREVIATIONS

Chain (CH): Yarn over and pull a loop back through.

Slip Stitch (SS): Insert hook in desired stitch, yarn over and pull through all loops on hook.

Single Crochet (SC): Insert hook in desired stitch, yarn over and pull a loop back through the stitch, yarn over and pull through all loops on hook.

Half Double Crochet (HDC): Yarn over, insert hook in desired stitch, yarn over and pull a loop back through the stitch, yarn over and pull through all loops on hook.

Double Crochet (DC): Yarn over, insert hook in desired stitch, yarn over and pull a loop back through the stitch, yarn over and pull through two loops, yarn over and pull through all loops on hook.

Increase (INC): Double crochet twice in the same stitch. This would increase the stitch count by 1 each time completed.  

Bobble Stitch (Bobble St.): * Yarn over, insert hook in desired stitch, pull up a loop, yarn over, pull through two loops, repeat from * 4 times (5 times total), yarn over, pull through all loops on hook, chain 1.

Egg Assembly

Choose a spot to place the egg yolk.  Using 6 white, sew the egg yolk to the egg white.  Sew into the BLO of the egg yolk to attach to the egg white.  This ensures that the white yarn will not show through on the egg yolk. 

Note: ensure you fill the yolk with fiber fill prior to closing completely.
