Materials you will need:
1) crochet yarn (I used Premium Acrylic DK yarn): for 1 egg holder about 20 g, for basket about 120 g (80 g bright orange and 40 g yellow);
2) crochet hooks (I used hook size 7 mm and 5 mm).

The approximate diameter of the crocheted egg holder with ruffle is 10 cm (about 3.9 inches), height is about 5 cm (1.9 inches); the approximate diameter of the crocheted basket with ruffle is about 24 cm (about 9.4 inches), without ruffle about 18 cm (about 7 inches), height is about 7.5 cm (about 2.9 inches).
The size of the egg holders and the basket may vary depending on the type of yarn, hook size and how tightly you crochet.
