see, this is my fear with crocheting, besides the left handed thing getting in the way.... I don't want to make any kind of "cozy" ever.

Not that there is anything wrong with what you made, its learning, I realize that. You have to start somewhere. I just have this unnatural personal hate of cozies.

You can get instructions to crochet left-handed. And as for the cozy thing, just dont make 'em. I wanted a small, easy project to get me started on working in the round (next task will be hats, working up to my poncho which will have to be worked in the round, and i want plenty of experience before i tackle that one!!), so this seemed ideal. Of course, now i need the practice, so my family members will start getting random gifts of egg cozies tongue

I'm missing something, why do you need to keep an egg warm? If you cook it why not eat it, if you don't want to eat it right away, why not wait to cook it? confused

Must be a British thing. How odd. I've never seen hats for eggs.

If you make yourself two boiled eggs for breakfast, you can use it to keep the other one warm while you eat the first. Or you can just keep your one egg warm while you eat the rest of your breakfast or whatever, depends on what you're having for breakfast, when you eat it etc.

And yes, they are a British thing.

I think Sooz is on to something... if she improves the design of her dick hats, and adds various styles, it could be a really explosive seller.

You're not protecting it, you're keeping it warm while you eat your other boiled egg. Or keeping it warm while its on the table and you're waiting for everybody to get there so you can start eating etc
