With color White use the adjustable ring/circle method to work in the round and single crochet 12 stitches into the ring/circle. Place marker at the top of the last sc, then, start with round one. Remove marker once you get to the last stitch, and then replace it after the last sc of each round to keep your place.

Stuff the egg here. It’ll be a little lumpy at first, but it’ll smooth out after stuffing it full.

Stuff the project a tiny more if needed then F/O

Cut yarn and leave a tail. Weave tail through remaining stitches twice and pull the hole close and weave the yarn tail into the egg to hide it.

Pull the yarn tail at the beginning of the egg to tighten the top and weave it into the egg to hide it. Also, use a crochet hook to pull the little loop created by the adjustable ring/circle method into the egg to hide it

Now the last steps are for creating the egg spots out of felt

Step 1: Cut out 4-5 red and 4-5 blue felt pieces in the shape of triangles or rhombuses at different sizes (whatever shapes you want really). Make sure the corners are a bit rounded for the Togepi Spots. Cut out the middle of the felt pieces  as in the picture. You can always look up Togepi’s egg online to see pictures of the egg spots too.

Step 2: Now, sew red spots in the appropriate places with the red thread and needle, and the blue spots in their appropriate places as well with the blue thread and needle.

[A tip for great spots is to not pull too tightly on the sewing thread while sewing. Otherwise the spots will come out wavy after sewing]

You’re finished!  J
