Chick and Egg Baby Crochet Pattern

Chick and Egg Baby Crochet Pattern

Spring is around the corner!  I love when spring time arrives, beautiful pastel colors, little bunnies and chick decor appears in all the stores and I get to pull out my holiday decor.  Are you having a spring baby or know someone who is, the Chick and Egg Baby would be an adorable prop for those must have newborn photos!  You could even use some fun variegated yarn for the "egg shell" portion and it would look like dyed eggs! So grab your yarn and make this super quick project and don't forget to share your project photos!!
