Rabbit Egg Cosy

An updated version of this pattern along with others can be found by clicking on the picture below.

Materials
DK yarn in pink, beige and brown, 4.00mm hook

Notes
Turning ch: the chain at beginning of rows is for turning only and not counted as a stitch unless other wise stated.
Starting chain: Always work into the back loop of the starting chain. This gives a neater finish, making both the bottom and top of the work look the same. When working into unused loops, pick up both loops as you would when working into the tops of other stitches.
Dc2tog: Insert hook in st, yoh and draw through, insert hook in next st, yoh and draw through, yoh and draw through all 3 loops on hook.

US
Sc2tog: Insert hook in st, yo and draw through, insert hook in next st, yo and draw through, yo and draw through all 3 loops on hook.
