Pink always looks attractive. Often articles like these were made from the small quantities of wool that were left over from larger projects. By using a mixture of colours a complete set could be made. Perhaps the lady who made these had previously knitted jumpers, cardigans, baby wear or  accessories from these balls of wool. She could choose to use the egg cosy that matched the garment she was wearing!

ピンクにはいつもひきつけられます。こういったものは何か大きなものを作ったときに残った少しの毛糸から作られました。いろんな色のものを組み合わせてひとつのセットが作られます。これを作った人は、まず毛糸でセーターか、カーディガン、ベビーウェアなどを編んだのでしょう。自分の着ている衣服に合わせて選んだ卵カバーを使っていたのかもしれません。
