This cute amigurumi candy only requires a little yarn, some safety eyes, and a bit of filling materials, and you are good to go. You can play around with colors, make striped candy, or make the wrapping in a different shade. The possibilities are endless!

The yarn

This yarn is from Hobbii; they sent me it for free to try it out. I got a pack of yarn in various colors of their 8/8 color back Also, I got some safety eyes in multiple sizes. I love this pack’s vibrant colors and was inspired to make an easy amigurumi pattern.

These crochet candies will go great with this basket and could be a nice treat for Easter.
