Flippable Egg and Chick / Bunny - Free Pattern

-


This little softie is a fun, reversible toy that can switch between being a chick and an egg. It's simpler than you'd think to make it, and it's always a hit with kids. I've also included the pattern for a bunny version, as well!


Flippable Egg and Chick / Bunny

Materials

  • Yarn (I used Loops & Threads Soft Classic Solid yarn)
  • Crochet hook (I used a 4.5mm hook)
  • Safety eyes
  • Tapestry needle
  • Stuffing
  • Stitch marker
  • Scissors

 

Abbreviations (US terms)

  • ch - chain
  • sc - single crochet
  • inc - increase
  • dec - decrease
  • hdc - half double crochet
  • dc - double crochet
  • tc - triple crochet
  • ss - slip stitch
  • FLO - front loops only
  • BLO - back loops only
  • mc - magic circle
  • (...) - repeat the part in parenthesis specified number of time
  • (#) - number of stitches after finishing the round

 

Finished Size

Each section is approximate 2 inches tall and 2 inches wide. May be different for everyone based on yarn thickness, hook size, and tension.

 

Pattern Instructions 

Egg and Chick Body

Make one in white for the egg, and one in yellow for the chick

Leave a long tail on the egg part for sewing, and a short tail on the chick one for weaving in


Beak

Ch 2
Sew between rounds 8 and 9

Wings

Ears for bunny

1. 4 mc

3. Sc around (6)
4. (2 sc, inc) x2 (8)

Attaching Parts

Sew the beak and wings to the chick side or the ears to the top of the bunny's head.

Place the egg portion inside the chick portion so the bad side is toward the chick and the good side is toward the middle.

Using a very loose whip stitch, sew the egg and chick together. Make sure you keep it loose so it's easier to flip.

Raccoons are one of the cutest North American animals, in my opinion! This raccoon pattern has a lot of colour changes for the head part, so it can be a little tricky to manage. The rest is relatively straightforward, so don't let the colour changes deter you!
