16 Free Crochet patterns for Easter Inpsiration

Easter has become more than just the celebration of Christ's resurrection. For non-Christians, it has become a celebration of the joys of Spring.


This time of year see the buds bursting with new life, the birth of little lambs and bunnies and a chance to enjoy chocolate in the shape of an egg.


I'm a big lover of chocolate in any shape, but egg shape chocolate seems to taste more special. Unlike those advent calendar chocolates, I've never enjoyed them.


More people are exchanging gifts in place of chocolate, especially for the younger ones in the family who seem to receive 10+ Easter eggs. I've heard from friends that it's not the children that end up eating them.


So, whether you're looking for some new crochet placemats to dress the table for Easter lunch, your looking for a unique gingham crochet Bunny to gift or you simply want to make some tiny crochet bunnies or some crochet carrots, you'll find links to 16 free crochet patterns to keep you inspired to keep on crafting this Easter.

How this round up of 16 Free Easter Crochet Patterns Works.

Each pattern in this round up post is available for free to follow on the designers website.  Many of these patterns also have the option to purchase a printable version of the pattern too if you're more of a paper person.
