Easter chicken on an egg crochet. Knitted Easter hens

A crochet chicken, as you already understood, is exactly the product that we will assemble from large triangular motifs with an African flower in the middle. The chicken is not big, so it will not take much time to make it.

Materials:

Leftover yarn in three colors for the main details - in my case dark gray, white and gray
Leftover yarn for small details in red and yellow (literally a little bit)
Sintepon or other filler
Cardboard to give the product stability
Pair of eye beads

1 row - in a sliding loop 3 lifting VP, 9 CCH, SS in the third loop of lifting loops (10)

2 row - 3 lifting VP, CCH in the same loop, from where the lifting loops were made, then in each loop 2 CCH (20)

3 row - 3 lifting VP, CCH in the same loop, from where the lifting loops were made, * CCH, increase *, ** repeat until the end of the row (30)

4th row - 3 VP lifting, CCH in the same loop, from where the lifting loops were made, * 2DC, increase *, ** repeat until the end of the row (40)

5 row - 3 VP lifting, CCH in the same loop, from where the lifting loops were made, * 3DC, increase *, ** repeat until the end of the row (50)

By the size of the circle, you need to cut out a cardboard blank, which we will later stuff into the product in order to make the bottom more even (this is absolutely not necessary, but it is desirable to get a better appearance and functionality of the product)

Now that all the main parts for the toy are connected, let's take care of the small details.

First of all, let's “designate” the wings - we will knit the feathers, and we will take as a basis all the same petals of an African flower.

1 row - Insert the hook, as shown in the photo below, we catch the thread white color and we make 3 VP, then we knit CCH from the same loop, VP, skip the loop, 2DC, VP, RLS in the gap between the petals ...
VP, 2SSN,VP, 2SSN,VP,SBN (see diagram)
2 row - 9 CCH under each arc from 1 VP of the bottom row

3 row - strapping. We tie the “petals - feathers” with a thread of dark gray color with single crochets by analogy with knitting a motif, i.e. in each loop of the RLS, and between the petals of the RLS on a long stem (we insert the hook a couple of rows below)
We knit the second wing in the same way as the first, but in a mirror image. Be careful!

Crochet chicken - assembly

I am often asked the question: “how to sew motives together?” Perhaps someday I will “ripe” to write such material, but not now, the topic is quite large ...

For now, I’ll tell you how I connected the motifs in this product

The motifs are sewn with connecting posts.

How to sew motifs with connecting posts

You and I know that each loop has two lobes - external (front) and internal (back). The outer lobule is located closer to us, the inner one is further away from us.
On the motifs - the outer slices are closer to the front side of the motif, respectively, the inner ones are closer to the wrong side (see photo below)

3. Connecting columns must be done by introducing a hook, exclusively for the inner segments of the loops. If someone suddenly forgot how to knit a connecting column, read
To sew motifs with connecting posts - we fold the motifs with the wrong side inward, and the front side out and forward! We sew motifs with connecting posts on the front side of the product.
As a result, we get a seam, but, please pay attention, a soft seam ...
There are no scars here!

This type of connection is perfect for connecting motifs in almost any product, in blankets, pillows, and anywhere ...

We sew in this way two faces of triangular motifs. Our crochet chicken begins to take on the shape of a conceived toy)))
The next step will be knitting a ponytail, scallop, beak and beard

Tail - we knit in the image and likeness of feathers on the wings, retreating a couple of rows from the edge of the motifs.

Scallop - again we take the petals of an African flower as a basis, only we knit according to 5SSN

The beak is a complete improvisation ... a magnificent double crochet of three columns ...
Beard * RLS, PSB, SSN, PSB, RLS * twice under the beak in loops opposite each other

It's time to fill the chicken with padding polyester, insert the bottom with cardboard into the toy and connect the top part with the bottom part, this time with single crochets, introducing the hook immediately under both slices of two motives (we connect from the front side of the product) There is quite a bit left...

Namely, mark the eyes and add feathers for elegance.
The eyes are ordinary black beads, and the feathers below are the same petals of an African flower, only from 5 CCHs (we insert the hook through the column)

One of the brightest holidays of Christianity is Easter. The chicken is one of the important symbols of this bright holiday, because the egg is born new life. Therefore, today we will crochet a chicken - it will become a wonderful decoration for the holiday.

I present to you 5 options - how to crochet an Easter chicken with your own hands with step-by-step photos.

Crochet Easter chicken - how to knit with your own hands

We crochet this chicken from the remaining skeins of yarn from previous work, using a few bright beads. The size of the beads for the eyes, beak and comb must be chosen according to the thickness of the yarn suitable for knitting an Easter toy. Read how to knit here.

So, let's begin.

We pull the thread into a bead, which will become the eye of the chicken.

We knit a chain from 7 air loops. We wrap a bead on a thread with this chain and fix it with a half-column. Now we knit 4 air loops, raising the knitting to the height of the double crochet.

Then, around the bead, we knit the required number of columns with two crochets so that a dense circle is formed, but without boxes from extra knitted elements. In this case, it turned out 21 columns with two crochets. One eye is ready, we also knit the second eye of the chicken.

We knit the tails from knitting the two resulting motifs together, put a beak bead on them and fasten the tails of the threads on the wrong side.

Now, with the help of semi-columns, we connect the two halves of the head with the eyes. We begin to sew from under the beak, retreating 2-3 loops down.

You need to tie the two parts in such a way that the neck of the chicken remains free.

We knit single crochets along the edge of the neck as follows: * the first loop is one column, the second loop is one column, the third loop is two columns *.

Repeat from * to * as many times as needed. We knit the next row without any additions with single crochets.

Next, we knit cones from 4 columns with one crochet in the following sequence: two columns with one crochet we knit the first loop of the previous row without combining them together, we knit two more columns into the next loop of the previous row, also without combining them. We combine the resulting four unbound columns with one loop.

In this way we knit the entire row.

We knit the last row like this - * 4 half-columns, a chain of 3 air loops *, repeating from * to * in a circle.

Where we began to make out the body, we knit the collar in a row of single crochet stitches: in the first loop, a single crochet plus a single crochet, in the next loop - a double crochet plus a single crochet. We repeat these two elements in a circle, making out the neck.

We knit a tail on the back of the chicken - we fix the thread, we knit a chain of 5 air loops, then on this chain we knit the required number of columns with two crochets so that the tail is tight.

This is how the chicken turns out.

On the head of the chicken we make a scallop of three colored beads with the help of threads and a hook.

Easter chicken is ready!

It knits very quickly and simply, so it does not require special knitting skills. It is enough to have basic knowledge.

For such a chicken you will need:

beige, red, yellow yarn;
yarn hook;
scissors;
synthetic winterizer;
needle for sewing details;
2 black beads for the eyes.

The chicken can be knitted from white yarn, or any other. It is better to give preference to thin yarn, but it is also undesirable to take too thin. Good "Children's Novelty" or "Yarn Art Jeans". The hook for it will fit from 1.75 to 3 mm.

We will knit the chicken from the bottom up, so we collect the chain of the desired length. It is equal to the desired length of the chicken.

In this case, a chain of 9 loops is connected. Now we will tie it on both sides. We knit 7 sbn, and in the 8th loop we will perform 3 columns at once.

On the second side we knit 1 sbn to the last loop. We will knit 2 sc in it.

We start a new row. We will knit in all loops 1 column each, but leave 3 loops at the place where the part is turned. We will knit 2 columns in them. This is a loop in the center and 1 loop on the sides of it.

We knit the next 6 rows, performing 1 column in a loop. If the chain was originally longer, then it is worth knitting more rows.

But since we need the hook to be in the corner, we knit extra loops to the corner. But you can just break the thread at the end of the last row. Fill the part with synthetic winterizer.

Now you need to sew the edge of the part.

If the thread is cut, then attach it in the corner and sew. Shape the chicken with your fingers. In the center you need to push it a little.

We take a red thread and attach it to the corner, which we will consider the head. Let's knit a comb. We make 4 air and knit 1 connection. column to the place where the thread comes from. We repeat 2 more times. And every time Comm. we knit the column at the same point.

Now we will tie the beak. Therefore, we take the yellow thread. We collect 2 loops and in the first we knit 3 sb .. Sew on the beak.

Attach the red thread under the beak. We make 3 loops and knit a conn. column at the same point. We hide all the extra threads inside the knitting.

Sew 1 black bead in place of the eyes. You can simply embroider eyes with black thread. To keep the chicken in shape, you can thread the needle and pass the needle into the center of the back of the chicken, and then bring it out from the bottom in the center of the abdomen. Tighten the threads and fix.

Our crochet chicken is ready!

DIY Easter chicken - master class

In this master class, I will show you how to tie such a cute chicken.

Knitting a chicken will require the following materials and tools:

Fine wool yarn in white and red. You can also use Jeans yarn in the appropriate colors;
Hook #1;
Two black beads;
Plastic egg from a large Kinder Surprise;
Needle and thread;
Scissors.

We collect 5 air loops on the hook, close the ends of the chain into a ring.

We make 3 air loops for lifting, and then we knit a row of columns with one crochet, introducing the tool into the hole in the ring of the chain. We make loops in such a quantity that there are no gaps between them, that is, they should fit snugly enough against each other.

We knit two such circles.

Now we apply them to each other with the wrong sides, take the red yarn and tie the two parts together with single crochets about 1/3 of the entire circumference of the circle.

Next, we will form the scallops of the chicken. To do this, we make 3 columns with a crochet in the second loop from the hook, and then we fix part of the scallop to the row with a half-column. We do the other two parts of the comb in the same way.

Then we knit 3 single crochets, 1 double crochet, and after that we knit 3 single crochets again.

Now we attach white yarn to the “neck” of the chicken and knit in a circle, covering parts of both circles of the head, single crochets in each loop.

The second row is knitted with double crochets, also knitting two loops into each loop of the previous row.

Periodically trying on a chicken on him, we knit his torso with double crochets, making additions in the appropriate places.

As soon as the edge of the body of the chicken reaches the level where the plastic egg tapers downwards, we knit another row of double crochets without additions by about 2/3 of the entire row. This is needed to make the tail of the chicken. That is, the untied part should be in the back of the hen's head.

Then we continue to knit the same row with five single crochets to make a recess.

We knit the next row in the same way, but in this row we make several decreases so that the knitting fits snugly against the base - a plastic egg. We make decreases by knitting double crochets with one vertex.

In the next row, we crochet the corners of the recess that we made earlier.

We fix them with a single crochet.

We close the opening of the tail, knitting it with single crochets. You get a triangle like this.

We attach red yarn and tie the edge of the tail with single crochets.

We turn the knitting and tie the tail according to the following scheme: 4 air loops, then 1 half-column in the third loop from the hook. Repeat until the end of the row, knitted in red.

To make the wings, we knit the first two rows in exactly the same pattern as the head of the chicken (see above).

About half of the third row we knit with single crochets, and then we make the tip of the wing in the following way: we knit 3 single crochets, then 3 single crochets, 1 double crochet, 3 double crochets, 3 single crochets. The remaining loops are knitted with single crochets.

We tie the chicken wing with red yarn with single crochets.

We sew all the details to the body of the chicken. Easter chicken is ready.

Crochet Easter Chicken - other video options

As you know, the main attributes of Easter are Easter bunnies and chickens. They decorate the festive table on this holiday. They can be purchased in stores, as well as made with your own hands - from paper, felt, fabric, yarn. And the additional decoration of the Easter table with Easter cakes and decorated eggs will bring a festive atmosphere to every home.

Read what can be done here.

There are many ways to. This is their painting, and various stickers, knitted baskets. But you can also knit an Easter hen in which you can put an egg. And in these master classes from Anna, we will make 4 crochet chickens for Easter with our own hands. Choose which one you like best, or you can link the whole company, each is good in its own way.

pink hen

To knit a beautiful testicle, we need:

The yarn is red, pink and yellow-green;
Hook;
Beads.

You can take yarn of any two colors for a chicken. Red color is required. From it we will knit a scallop and a beak.

And we will also start with red yarn.

We will knit sixteen single crochets in a sliding loop. Do not overtighten the ring.

Then change the thread to a different color. And we knit them six rows.

Now we will make additions to each loop of the underlying row.

Now fold the knitting in half and mark the place where the tail will be. Next, we will consider the beginning of each row from the opposite side, that is, not from the tail, but from the front of the chicken.

We continue with single crochets, but do not knit two loops to the mark. We will knit two columns in them, and then two more columns after the mark will be knitted with two columns into a loop. So we will expand the place for the tail. We knit a row with single crochets, one column at a time.

In the next row, we will also knit two columns in the tail in four loops of the bottom row.

Now we will attach another thread of a different color. And knit one single crochet in each loop.

Now we change the thread again and do not knit eight loops to the middle of the tail. In them we will knit two double crochets. And after the middle, too, two columns in eight loops. And then one single crochet to the end of the row.

We change the thread and knit single crochets to the tail. And in the tail we knit columns with a crochet. We finish the row with single crochets.

We knit the entire next row with single crochets with a thread of a different color.

We change the thread.

We knit a row to the tail with single crochets. And then again we will knit double crochets in the tail, two stitches per loop.

Let's finish with single crochets.

Now we will knit a new row differently.

To the tail we knit columns without a crochet.

And in the tail like this: we make a crochet and insert the hook into the loop, pulling out the working thread. We knit a loop and yarn over. We do not knit the rest.

Yarn over again and insert your hook into the next stitch and pull up the working thread. Knit yarn over and loop again.

And then knit all these loops together. We make one air and continue to knit the tail in this way.

We finish the row with single crochets.

Now we change the thread and knit a row to the tail with single crochets. And in the tail we will make four air loops and a single crochet between our elements.

Here's what we ended up with.

Now we will attach the red thread to the head. And let's make a comb. We make three air loops and knit a single crochet through both sides of the head, where it is knitted with a red thread. And so two more times.

Now we will attach the red thread to where the beak will be.

And we will make three air loops.

We knit a connecting column under the same place where we attached the thread.

Sew or glue beads instead of eyes.

Here is such an Easter chicken crocheted!

orange hen

To knit a chicken you will need:

Yarn "Children's novelty" orange, lilac and red;
Hook 1, 75 mm;
Scissors;
2 small black beads.

Step by step description

We start knitting from the head of the chicken. To do this, we perform 6 sc in a sliding loop. We tighten the loop. In a new row, we need to connect the additions in each row. We will get 12 columns.

Then we will make an increase in the next row through 1 loop. Now there will be 18 loops.

We knit 4 rows of 18 sc in each in a circle.

On the next row, cast on 2 ch and knit inc every 2 sts. But now we knit not sbn, but pssn.

We start a new row. We rise on 3 loops. And we knit 1 row with an increase in each loop. But now we knit not pssn, but ssn.

Now we will knit the body. Let's start with ch 3. Skip 3 loops of the base and knit 1 sc in the 4th loop. Again we make 3 loops and skip 3 sc of the bottom row. So we knit in a circle.

We made arches for the new row. We pass ss under the first arch. We knit 3 lifting loops and 4 more dc. Together with the lifting loops, we will count as 5 dc.

In the new arch we knit 1 sc. And in another arch again 5 dc. So to the end. At the end, we knit 1 dc in the 3rd lifting loop.

We pass ss to 3 ss of the bottom row. We knit 1 lifting loop. It will replace 1 sc. Then in the sb of the bottom row we knit 5 dc. And then again we will perform 1 sc in the 3rd loop of 5 dc of the bottom row. We continue knitting to the end.

We will knit 1 more of the same row.

Now let's form the tail. We do 3 in. We rise up and knit 1 sc in the dc shells of the row above. At the same time, we deviate to the left. Again we do 3 ch and we knit 1 sc into the shell one more row higher and a little to the left. Knitting in this row is not important.

We need to knit an arc from chains of 3 ch. Therefore, now we dial 3 ch and go down a row. We knit 1 sc. And so on to the bottom row. In total, 6 chains of 3 loops will be connected.

The arc should take up half the chicken. If you fold the part in half, then on each half there will be 3 shells of the bottom row.

Now we turn around. We knit under the arch 1 sc. We knit 5 more dc in the same arch. In the next arch, we also knit 1 sc and 5 dc.

So we knit in the remaining arches.

We attach a lilac thread and tie the tail with sc.

In the same way we make a wing. But this time there will be only 3 arches. Attach the thread in a row of dc. There, where we knitted with the addition to each loop. We do 3 ch and go down to the row below, we knit 1 sc. Then we will connect the same arch, retreating to the left, but in the same row. And then we will rise up hardly ss.

We tie it in the same way as in the tail. We knit 1 sc and 5 dc under each arch. We tie with a lilac thread sc.

On the other side we will make such a wing.

We attach a red thread to the head of the chicken. We make 3 loops. We will tie 1 pss to the same point, then we need to tie 1 sc and 1 sl-st next to each other.

Let's make a beak. Attach the red thread. We make 3 ch and knit 1 sl-st at the same point.

Attach black beads instead of eyes.

It remains to put an egg inside!

Hen

At Easter we paint eggs. But to make them look even more interesting and original, you can knit wonderful bags or coasters for them. In this master class, we will knit an Easter egg decoration in the form of a chicken.

For knitting we need:

Thread "Yarn Art Jeans" white, red and orange;
Hook 1, 75 mm;
Scissors;
Brown floss thread;
Needle.

To begin with, we will make 2 air loops. Then, in the very first loop, that is, in 2 from the hook, we knit 6 single crochets. This will be the first row.

In the new row, we will knit increases in each of the loops. This means that you need to perform 2 single crochets in each loop.

In the new row, we do not increase, we just knit 18 single crochets.

And in the next row we knit an increase again. Now we will knit 2 columns in 2 loops, and in the 3rd loop we knit 2 columns without a crochet. And so we knit the whole row.

We knit the next row without additions.

We continue to make increments, thereby increasing our detail. We knit 1 column in 3 loops, and knit 2 columns in the 4th loop. And so in a circle the whole series to the end.

To make the head stand out, in the new row we knit the increase again every 2 loops of the row.

And now we will knit a row without adding.

We connect the last row with increments. In it we knit in 4 loops, 1 column each, and in the 5th loop we perform 2 columns. So we knit the whole row.

Again, we perform a series without additions.

Now let's subtract. To do this, we knit 4 columns without a crochet, and we knit 5 and 6 loops together with one column. That is, we decreased after 4 loops.

We knit a row without decreases.

We continue to add. Now we knit 3 columns 1 in a loop, and then we knit 2 loops together.

We knit the next 5 rows without decreases and increases. That is, we knit 1 column in each individual loop.

Now you need to attach the red thread from above. We attach approximately to the column of the 3rd row. And then we knit 5 single crochets between the loops. We make a lifting loop. We turn around and knit 1 single crochet in the first loop. Then here 1 half-column with a crochet and 1 column with a crochet. And then we knit the same element in all the following red loops. It turns out that we will knit such an element 5 times.

Now we will knit a beak. Again we make 2 air loops and we perform 6 columns without a crochet in the 2nd loop from the hook. Next, we perform 2 rows of 6 columns.

Sew the beak in place.

Wings require white thread. We make a sliding loop and knit 3 single crochets. We turn around and knit a row with increases on the sides, that is, only in the first and last loop.

Repeat the row 4 more times. We do not cut the thread, but we make a strapping along the contour into the corners, we knit 2 columns each.

We take the orange thread, as we will knit the legs. We make 4 air loops and knit down 3 connecting columns. Then again we make 4 loops and knit 3 connecting posts down. We also knit a connecting column to the point where 2 fingers come from. In the same way we knit 1 more finger.

Such details need to be connected 2 pieces.

Sew on legs and wings. We embroider eyes with a brown floss thread.

Here is a decoration for Easter eggs crochet can be knitted very quickly and easily.

Multicolored mother hen

You always want Easter decorations to be original and bright. This is step by step description will show you how to crochet an Easter egg decoration in the shape of a chicken.

Materials and tools that will be required:

Thread "Children's novelty" of beige, red, orange, as well as any 4 colors;
Hook;
Scissors;
A pair of safety eyes.

The chicken must be knitted from top to bottom, starting from the head. You need to make 2 loops. Then perform 6 sc in 2 loops, thereby increasing the number of loops to 12.

1 row: increase in a circle.

2 row: 1 sc, increase.

3 row: 2 sc, increase.

4 - 8 row: 1 sc in each sc of the previous row.

9 row: 3 sc, increase.

10th row: 1 sc.

11 row: 4 sc, increase.

12 - 14 row: 1 sc.

15 row: knit behind the back wall of the loops 1 sc.

16 row: 1 sc in a circle for both walls of the loops.

17 - 24 row: knit, alternating 1 row for the whole loop and 1 row for the back wall of the loops. That is, only 8 rows, 4 of them for both walls of the loops and 4 only for the back walls.

Now you need to move on to knitting a skirt. Any color of thread will work for this. In this case, a raspberry-colored thread is used. Attach the thread to the beginning of the row. You need to attach in the row where the last time it was knitted behind the back wall of the loops.

Before starting a new row, make 3 loops instead of 1 dc. Then knit 3 dc in each loop.

Then you need to knit 3 more such rows, rising up into the rows, where it is knitted behind the back walls of the loops. In each row, it is better to change the thread so that the chicken turns out bright and colorful. There will be 4 rows of skirt in total. You can knit 1 more row, as there is 1 more row with free half loops. The chicken will turn out even more magnificent. It is important not to forget to hide the tails of the thread on the wrong side.

At this stage, the detail can be postponed, since then you need to move on to knitting the beak and scallop. For the beak, orange or yellow yarn is suitable. It is very easy to knit. You need to make 2 loops and tie 6 sc into the 2nd loop, and then add through the loop. Sew the resulting part in place.

To tie a scallop, you need to take a red thread and make an initial loop. You need to attach it in the center, approximately in the 2nd row. Then climb 3 loops, tie 1 dc here. Then you need to knit back between the columns 1 pss, then you need to knit 2 sb, moving back. As a result, you need to make 1 connecting column to secure the row.

The chicken is ready, it remains to attach safe eyes.

The hen is ready for Easter.

Easter is an important holiday for every Christian. They carefully prepare for it in advance, bake Easter cakes, paint eggs, buy small accessories and trinkets to decorate the house and the festive table. Recently, in addition to eggs and apiaries, an integral attribute of the holiday has become a wicker basket, an Easter bunny and crocheted hens for Easter, under which painted eggs are often hidden. Knitting them to decorate eggs is not at all difficult. Such products will be a worthy company for a hare.

Knitting chicken: preparation for work

For knitting Easter chicken will need yarn in 4 colors:

One main color

Two contrasting straps

And a third for the scallop.

Ready product for decorating eggs, shown in the picture, is made of Yarn Art Jeans threads with a crochet hook with a thickness of 2.00 and 1.75 mm.

Its height is 9 cm - quite enough to hide the eggs under it.

Abbreviations used:

VP - air loop.

SBN, art. b / n - single crochet.

CCH - a column with 1 crochet.

CC2H - a column with 2 crochets.

PSSN - half-column with 1 crochet.

Let's start knitting an Easter chicken

A mug made after the end of the first row is the top of an egg decoration. In order for the knitted product to turn out to be even and beautiful, you need to try to make it neat.

product head

The next stage of work is knitting the head of an Easter chicken to decorate eggs. We crochet it with single crochets. Each new row is performed without a lifting loop. In order not to get confused and make the required number of circular rows, it is recommended to mark the beginning of the second row with a marker or thread of a different color.

Second r. it is very simple: a b / n column is knitted into each loop of the previous row. Adhering to this scheme, we also perform the third and fourth p. products, We finish the fourth row with a connecting column.

Starting from the fifth VPs are performed to lift the rows. In the first loop of the previous row, you need to tie one single crochet. In the second loop we knit two tbsp. b / n - we make the first addition of five. In the third and fourth - one column b / n, and in the fifth - again the addition. This knitting pattern continues until the end of the river. The fifth river ends. connecting column in the VI. As a result, in a circle after adding five, 21 loops are obtained.

Sixth and seventh p. we knit with b / n columns without adding loops.

From the eighth a transition is made to the body of the Easter hen, in which eggs can be hidden. To do this, an extension is made, as described below.

Body in which to hide the eggs

Eighth r. products for decorating eggs are crocheted CCH. Row lifting is carried out using three VPs. The scheme of work involves additions: two CCHs in each loop. As a result, 42 columns should be completed at the end of the row. Such an expansion of the body is necessary in order to hide the egg in it.

The rise of the ninth river. also carried out by three VPs. It knits 14 arches of three VPs. To do this, we skip 2 loops, in the third we knit a b / n column. Three VPs again, Art. b / n through two in the third loop of the previous row.

Tenth r. knits into the arches of the ninth. We do the rise of the row with the help of a single crochet in the first arch. It also needs to knit another column. In the second arch of the tenth row we knit 5 CC2H, in the third - one st. b / n, in the fourth - again 5 CC2H. Thus, we alternate motifs to the end of the row.

11 p. In the middle loop of the first motive from 5 CC2H, 2 tbsp. b / n, and in all subsequent ones one at a time. In Art. b / n of the previous row is knitted 6 CC2H.

12 p. It is performed similarly to the 11th row with the difference that in the art. b / n fit 7 SS2N.

After the end of 12 p. the body is tried on the egg to determine whether it is necessary to continue working with the crochet further or if the height is enough. It can be different due to different thickness of threads, hook and knitting density. If you want to knit another row, then it is performed similarly to the 12th, with the difference that in Art. b / n of the previous row is knitted 8 CC2H.

We knit the next row in the same way as the previous one, and in the 14th we need to make a narrowing so that the Easter chicken sits tightly on the egg. In it, in Art. b / n is performed 6 SS2N.

Last 15 p. CCH is knitted into each loop of the previous row. For better stability of the product, it must be tied with a crustacean step.

The body, under which you can hide the egg, is ready.

Knit wings and tail

In order to correctly determine the location of the tail and wings, you need to fold the product for decorating eggs in half and mark the middle with a colored thread.

The tail will consist of two parts: lower and upper. Their location is marked in the picture in red and green, respectively.

To complete the tail of the product, we attach the thread at point 1 with a hook, we collect 4 air loops. At point 2, we fasten the chain with the help of RLS. We repeat 4 VP and RLS at point 3 and so on until the seventh point. Next, in each arch you need to tie 1 RLS, 1 PSSN, 1 CCH, 1 SS2N and in mirror image 1 CCH, 1 PSSN, 1SBN. The row ends with a connecting column.

The tail is tied with a contrasting thread with single crochets in each loop. We knit 2 sc at the top of the motif to bend the row.

The lower part of the hen's tail for decorating eggs is made using the same pattern as the upper one.

The place for the wing is marked in the photo with a coral thread. For its implementation, 12 VPs are knitted, which are attached to the body of the RLS.
