One of my goals as I try to get my knitting pattern business off the ground was to create a pattern inspired by every major holiday this year. When I thought of Easter, my mind initially jumped to bunnies and Easter bonnets, but there are a lot of bunny and bonnet hats out there already. Next my mind jumped to Easter eggs. A colorful Easter egg pattern could be really fun to make! And the idea was born.

Ever since Lion Brand came out with their bonbons yarn, I’ve been wanting to make a project out of them! I finally did it, and here is that project. This hat was perfect because I wanted make an Easter egg inspired hat with lots of colors. The bonbons brights colorway came in a sport weight yarn, perfect for spring weather.
