Have a festive breakfast and keep your boiled eggs warm with this little Christmas Tree Egg Cosy. This is a great project for beginner knitters to try as you just need to know two stitches: knit and a k2tog decrease. The tree is decorated with little ready-made pompoms, but you could also sew on buttons, beads or sequins if you prefer.
