Crochet crafts for Easter with description. How to crochet Easter cake


On the eve of any holiday, it is customary to decorate the interior of the room with themed souvenirs. And the Easter holiday is no exception. For this day, people bake Easter cakes, paint eggs and prepare souvenirs for loved ones. One of these is knitted Easter cake. It is not difficult to knit, but there are still some difficulties in this work. But first things first.

For work we use 2 colors of yarn (you can use leftovers) white and brown, colored threads, beads, beads, synthetic fluff.

First we knit the bottom of the Easter cake

We make a sliding loop and knit 6 single crochets into it. We tighten the loop and then begin to add loops in the rows so that the knitting evenly expands. In the first row we knit 2 single crochets in each base loop, in the second row we alternate 2 single crochets in one base loop, 1 single crochet in one base loop. In the third - 2 single crochets in one base loop, 2 single crochets in each base loop. And so on until we get a circle of the required diameter.


The next row should “raise” the walls of the cake. Therefore, we knit one single crochet into each loop of the base, but we insert the hook not into the entire loop, but behind its back wall. Having knitted one row in this way, we knit all subsequent rows one single crochet into each loop of the previous row, crocheting the entire loop. After a couple of rows, the bend edge of the canvas will be visible.


Having tied the cake to the desired height, fasten the thread and cut off the remainder.


We stuff it tightly with synthetic down.


We also knit a slip loop from white yarn and knit 6-10 single crochet stitches into it. We tighten the loop and then begin to add loops in the rows so that the knitting evenly expands. We make an increase in the same way as we did in the bottom of the Easter cake, but we knit single crochet stitches.


Until you get a circle whose diameter is larger than the diameter of the Easter cake. You can tie everything around the edge with shells.


We pin a white circle on the Easter cake and sew it on.


Now you need to decorate the top of the cake. You can use anything you like, beads, colored threads, beads, etc.


I decided to make a small decoration using colored threads. We thread the needle into the knitted fabric and wind the end of the thread onto it. Then we pull the needle and we get a colored sewn decoration.

On the bright holiday of Easter, it can be especially nice to give loved ones a souvenir that keeps your hands warm, or to decorate your home and holiday table with cute crafts. The main thing is that even those who have just recently picked up a crochet hook or knitting needles will not have any difficulties in making the knitted Easter crafts that we have prepared for you, and some of the patterns may well be attempted by children.

Eggs

Even in ancient times, the egg was considered a symbol of life and resurrection. However, it is believed that eggs appeared on the Easter table thanks to a legend. During the Roman Empire, people could only visit the emperor with a petition by bringing him a gift. When Mary Magdalene decided to bring the news of the resurrection of Christ to Emperor Tiberius, it turned out that she had nothing but a white chicken egg. Then, handing the emperor her modest gift, she said: “Christ is risen!” In response, the emperor laughed and replied that he would believe such news only if this white egg changed its color to red. At that very moment a miracle happened and the egg turned bright red. Then the utterly surprised emperor said: “Truly he has risen!”

Whether this was so is unknown, but the tradition of painting eggs, exchanging them and putting them on the festive table has been around for centuries. Gradually, along with dyeing eggs, the custom of decorating them in other ways appeared, and then at Easter they began to give each other fake eggs more often as a gift. We invite you to support the tradition. And, for example, knit (or knit) an egg with crochet or knitting needles.

However, you shouldn’t limit yourself to knitting. You can try, for example, making an embroidered egg, making an egg from fabric or felt, decorating it with braid, buttons, rhinestones and anything else.

Egg warmers

A great opportunity to decorate the holiday table in an original way (and not only for Easter) is to use egg warmers. Their big advantage is that you can use such warmers for more than one year, and by knitting several different sets, you can diversify your table decor.

There are a great variety of hot water bottles, from funny hats (just like real ones, even with pom-poms) to nesting dolls and hares, which look more like toys than hot water bottles. We invite you to knit simple patterns that will delight both children and adults.

  • Egg warmer “Hat with pompom”
You can also sew a heating pad from fabric or felt - most of these models are very simple and do not require special skills.

  • DIY egg warmers made from non-woven fabric and felt

Easter bunnies

Despite the fact that, according to all the logic of things, the chicken should take first place among the animal world at the Easter celebration, this poultry takes second place. And in the first place is traditionally the rabbit (in the Russian version it is also often replaced by a hare). Some say that the reason for this is the known fertility of rabbits, so this animal symbolizes birth and life. Others believe that it just “happened that way,” but the fact remains. We invite you to keep up with traditions and decorate your home with a rabbit figurine.

In a month we will have a big Orthodox holiday - Easter, this year it is celebrated on April 8th. And we have time to prepare for it - to create Easter souvenirs with our own hands, which will be presented to our loved ones on this bright holiday.

After all, we know that the best gift is a gift made with your own hands, and we also present ideas for Easter symbols that will serve as interior decor. I suggest you immediately decide what is considered this holiday symbol?

In our country, painted eggs are an invariable attribute; they are also called painted eggs, and in the USA and Europe, in addition to painted eggs, there are Easter baskets and wreaths. A rabbit that children love very much, because if they are obedient, the bunny brings them chocolate eggs, as well as chicks and hens.

We described in detail how to create these Easter symbols in the article, so I suggest not to waste time, but to start choosing the most beautiful craft. You can also create a giant one, put an Easter-themed surprise in it and give it to your children, they will be absolutely delighted! Don't forget to write in the comments which idea did you like best?

The custom of presenting beautiful Easter eggs made of beads has been known for a long time. If you have not yet created such beauty, we suggest that you definitely try to make such an Easter decoration.


We will need:

  • thermal sticker or paper image;
  • white egg blank (made of plastic or foam);
  • a thread;
  • hook;
  • decorative elements for decoration;
  • fishing line or special monofilament for beading;
  • beads of different colors or bead thread;
  • a piece of foam;
  • scissors;
  • glue;
  • needle;
  • a piece of felt.

Stages of work:

We cut out an oval from felt; the face will be placed on it. Apply it to the iron-on sticker and cut out the image to the required size.

We apply the face to the felt and trim the sides with a strip of beads, which you will make in advance.



If possible, purchase ready-made bead threads.

Now we crochet the egg. Below is a detailed description:

If you don't know how to crochet, just wrap the egg with ribbon:


Coat the felt side of the face with glue. Carefully attach to the egg.


We decorate the craft with a thin ribbon. Along the egg.


Attach a crown to the top; it can be purchased at craft stores. If you don't have one, use a beautiful bow made of thin ribbon.


Let's start decorating the egg stand. We attach a large wooden bead to a piece of foam plastic at each corner. These will be four legs. Decorate the edges with braid. On the other side of the stand we glue four leaves, and in the middle there is an egg.


We finish decorating the craft with flowers.


Here are some more beautiful options:


This is the easiest option. You can also draw the desired design of the egg blank and cover it with beads. PVA glue and a toothpick will help with this.

Before doing this, do not forget to paint the egg in the desired color.


You can also wrap an egg, previously coated with glue, with a thread of beads.

As you can see, there are many options. Here are interesting patterns for braiding eggs with beads.




We make beautiful eggs for Easter from satin ribbons using the kanzashi technique

In Europe, the word “kanzashi” means a needlework technique based on folding small pieces of fabric in a special way.


We will need:

  • green and white satin ribbon (width 2.5 cm);
  • foam circle;
  • a piece of white felt;
  • green and orange ribbon (width 0.6 cm);
  • preparing an egg the size of a chicken;
  • hot glue;
  • candle or lighter;
  • forceps;
  • beads.

Stages of work:

Wrap the egg with ribbon. We glue its edge to the top part. So we continue to wrap the egg, gluing the ribbon to the top and bottom of the egg.


We wrap the ribbon crosswise, otherwise the whole structure will fall apart.


We get this bright polka dot egg.


Let's start making flowers. To do this, cut out a 2.5 by 2.5 cm square from white tape.

Don't forget to singe the cut edges of the tape. Otherwise it will simply crumble.

Let's fold the square diagonally. We bring the edges of the resulting triangle to the middle.


Now we fold the resulting petal again and clamp it with tongs. We singe the lower part of the petal over the candles.


We cut off the edge of the back of the petal and also singe it. We have these petals coming out. You will need 18 of them. There are 6 pieces for each flower.


We glue them together. Glue a bead in the middle.


Let's make petals from a shiny green ribbon. Let's make three green loops and cut the ribbon. Let's burn the bottom of the loops over the candles.


attach the flower to the leaves. In this way we make two more flowers.


For the stand, cut a circle out of felt. Its diameter is 5.5 cm. We paste a 2.5 cm green tape along its edges.


We glue another “skirt” inside, but its diameter is slightly smaller.


Cut a circle out of foam plastic so that you can put an egg in it. We wrap it with green ribbon, from which we made leaves.

Don't forget to attach everything with glue.

Glue the ring to the middle of the stand.

We place an egg in the ring and decorate it with flowers and stamens.

These are some interesting ideas you can get if you use your imagination a little:

Crocheted Easter chickens

And of course we couldn’t forget about the cute knitted chickens. If you are good at crocheting, we offer this craft for Easter.


We will need:

  • hook No. 1.75;
  • suitable yarn in two colors and a little red for the comb and beak;
  • scissors;
  • needle;
  • black thread for eyes.

Stages of work:

If you want to make a chicken as an Easter egg stand, use a slightly larger yarn and hook.

1st row: make an amigurumi ring from a yellow thread. We fix it with an air loop.


We knit 8 single crochets inside the ring. We tighten the ring so that it closes.


Row 2: we need to make 8 increases. To do this, in each single crochet (previous row) we knit 2 single crochets. As a result, we get 16 loops.


Rows 3-8: knit 16 single crochets, without increments.


Row 9: make 16 increases. To do this, in each column (of the previous row) we make 2 single crochets. We get 32 ​​loops.

Now we make 1 connecting post. This will help smooth out the rows. 1 air loop for lifting. This will be the center of the chicken's tail. This is where we will add loops.


Row 10: 2 increases, 28 single crochets, 2 increases, connecting stitch. Total: 36 columns.

11th row: 1 air loop, 1 single crochet at its base. In the next column - increase, 32 single crochets, 2 increases in the last 2 loops.

Using red thread we make a connecting column.


There are 48 single crochets in total.

Row 12: We also knit a single crochet at the base of the air loop. Next are 39 single crochets, the connecting stitch is yellow.

Let's start knitting the tail.

Row 13: 8 increases in double crochets, 24 single crochets, 8 increases in double crochets, connecting red stitch. Total: 56 columns.


Row 14: for the tail pattern, between each pair of double crochets you need to knit 2 double crochets. To do this, we move the connecting column to the middle between the columns. In the same place we knit 2 more double crochets. We also do this 7 more times. There are eight pairs of double crochets in total.


Row 15: just like at the beginning of the last row, we move to the middle between the columns. Between each pair of stitches we knit: a stitch with 1 crochet, 1 chain stitch, a stitch with 1 crochet. We knit this way only 8 times. Next, 24 single crochet stitches, 8 pairs of stitches, a connecting stitch in red.

Row 16: Using a connecting column, we pass to the air loop between the rows. From the same loop we knit 4 double crochets. There are 8 such patterns in total. Next, 24 single crochets, 8 patterns, a yellow connecting stitch.

Row 17: we knit in the middle of each feather: 1 connecting stitch for the back wall of the work, 1 double crochet for both walls.


Let's move on to finishing the chicken's tail.

Row 18: hide the yellow thread under the red one. We knit 3 air loops. Insert a hook between each two rows of the previous row and knit a single crochet. So we tie the entire half of the tail.

Cut the yellow thread.

Then we carry out 11 decreases in a row. This is done in this way: we knit two loops from the previous two columns. From the resulting three loops on the hook we make one.

We crochet the red thread inside.

We got the main part of the Easter chicken.


Now let's move on to knitting the stand.

Attach a red thread to the last column of the chicken's body. We knit a chain of 15 chain stitches. We attach the chain to the opposite edge of the body.


Along the edge of the body we knit: 2 double crochets, 1 double crochet (in each previous single crochet). And so on until the end of the body. We also knit along a chain of air loops. We complete the row with a connecting column.



This will help keep the egg rim in place.

Unfold the knitting. We knit a double crochet into each stitch of the previous row. We complete the row with a connecting column in the red row of the tail. Fasten and cut the thread. This is the kind of stand we got.


Decorate the chicken with a scallop. To do this, we will make an amigurumi ring. Next we knit into a ring: single crochet, chain stitch, double crochet. Only 6 times.

We tighten the loop. Fold the resulting flower in half. We get 3 double scallops. We tie them on top, together. Sew the comb to the head.

We take out the remaining thread in the place of the beak and make a loop. We knit four air loops from it. Turn the hook. We skip one air loop. In the remaining three we knit one single crochet. We attach the second side of the beak to the muzzle. In this way we knit the lower part of the beak. Cut the thread. We hide its end inside.

We embroider the eyes. We got this chicken.

I invite you to look at my work" DIY crocheted Easter". I needed to get started work:Threads for Easter, threads for glaze, hook, rhinestones and beads.

.Easter I started knitting in the round starting from the central air loops, I knitted the sides to a height of about 10-12 centimeters.


Turn the can upside down. We put synthetic padding on the bottom and we pull it all over Easter related, securing the bottom by decreasing the loops.

For further work we will be needed: Sewing threads, rhinestones and beads. "we sew the icing onto the top part Easter. We sew rhinestones and beads onto the “glaze” to imitate powder.

The next stage of knitting is addition: plate. I also knit in a circle from the center, the circle should be slightly wider than the bottom Easter.


This is what happened. Not enough to complete the job easter eggs. For this we need threads of different colors (preferably bright color).



Foam rubber, scissors for cutting foam rubber into pieces, Crochet hook. Knitting Easter egg from the center of the circle starting with air loops. We knit the sides to the middle of the egg and then begin to reduce the number of loops. Shaping easter egg.


We don’t finish it until the end. stuff the “egg” with pieces of foam rubber to maintain the shape of the egg. After closing the egg, reduce the number of loops.


This is how it turned out Easter eggs.

And this is what I got in the kit.

13. Now we tie together the two parts of the box lid. This is done with single crochets.

14. The Easter cake cap is ready. All that remains is to decorate the sides with white fondant. We knit a single crochet. We skip one loop, yarn over, in the second loop - three double crochets. So we tie the entire edge of the Easter cake.

Master class: how to knit Easter cake and eggs for beginners?

Also, we bring to your attention an Easter composition with Easter cake and multi-colored colorful eggs. It will create a festive mood or be a lovely gift.

We will need:

  • yarn: for Easter cake (white and brown), for eggs (your choice);
  • hook No. 1.75;
  • bugles or beads;
  • padding polyester;
  • cardboard.

Stages of work:

1. First we will tie the bottom of the Easter cake:

Row 1: Cast on 2 chain stitches. We insert a hook into the first one. We knit 6 single crochets.


2nd row: 6 increases. From each previous stitch we knit two single crochets. Total: 12 columns.

3rd row: Increases through the column. Total: 18 columns. Example, 1 single crochet, increase in the second column and so on for the entire row.

Row 4: Increase every 2 single crochets. Total: 24 columns.

If the bottom of the cake shrinks. Use a larger hook.

3. We move on to knitting the walls of the Easter cake. To do this, you need to knit 26 rows without increases.


4. Inside the knitted cup, insert a padding polyester circle, and onto it a previously cut cardboard one.

5. For the sides of the Easter cake, cut out a suitable strip of padding polyester and cardboard. We insert it inside and fill the cake with padding polyester.

Don't forget to fasten the edges of the cardboard strip with a stapler, tape or glue.


As you can see, we have attached a paper clip. You will need this to know where the beginning of the row is.

6. Let's start knitting the top:

1st row: 10 single crochets, 1 decrease. So until the end of the row. Total: 66 columns. The decrease is performed in the form of two single crochets knitted together.

7. We continue to make decreases every 9 columns, then 8 and so on until the middle of the top of the Easter cake. We will not describe this in detail. Because knitting the top is reminiscent of knitting the bottom of an Easter cake. The only difference: there were increases for the bottom, and decreases for the top. As a result, there will be 18 single crochets left.


If necessary, add a little padding polyester to make the top of the cake convex.

8. 1 more row of decreases every 1 single crochet. Total: 12 single crochets. We continue to make decreases until the hole is completely closed. We cut the thread and hide it inside.

14. Fill the egg completely with padding polyester. So that it takes on a round shape. We continue to make decreases until the hole is closed. Let's hide the thread inside.
