Easter is a fun time of the year for kids, bringing surprises and joy to their faces. Increase this joy by making the Easter Baskets and Toys crochet pattern. What child wouldn’t love one of these delightful baskets and toys? The pattern includes instructions for three baskets, each featuring an Easter animal. Make the chick, bunny or goose crochet basket, and then make the complimenting toy to fit inside. The small toy tuck nicely in a pocket or child’s bag, so you can take the toy with you where ever you go this Easter holiday. Have some fun with the baskets by making them from the Easter Bunny and hiding the basket filled with goodies. Finding this special toy and basket filled with Easter goodies is a sure winner.

The Easter Baskets and Toys Patterns are quick and easy to make with two strands of worsted weight yarn for a sturdy basket that you can fill with eggs or candy. The cute toys use one strand for a sweet compliment to the basket. The toys are approximately 7 inches high, just big enough to fit inside the basket that is about 6 inches wide and 10 inches high at the top of the handle. Even if you don’t have a child to give these baskets to, they make a great gift for a grandchild or special friend of the family. Think of how sweet these baskets will look when you put them in your house as a holiday display piece.
