Eggstra Special Duckling

As I said yesterday, Colton is too young this Easter for some of the typical Easter basket fillers but that hasn't stopped me from finding fun things to make. Photobucket
Here we have a bikini top for a very small woman with large b....STOP! That isn't it at all!
Ahem. What we have here is an egg.
Peek-a-boo...I'm hatching!
Aren't I just ducky?
Am I quacking you up yet?
The pattern is from the current issue of Crochet World. I embroidered eyes rather than gluing on squiggly eyes for safety sake, used fiberfill rather than foam balls to stuff head and body, and omitted the hat and jacket. While very cute, the hat and jacket would be lost on a one year old.

Just like the chocolate bunny I posted yesterday, this might not hold Colton's interest at all. Don't tell him, but often the reason I make something is for my own amusement. Photobucket
