Items needed:
1. Worsted Weight Yarn: two colors (one for the beak
and one for the actual bird)
2. Size G crochet hook
3. Solid black eyes - 6 mm (0.24 in)
4. Stuffing
5. Yarn needle
Notes:
1. Do not join at the end of each round.
2. Use a stitch marker (I used yarn) to mark the
beginning of each round.
Abbreviations:
mr - magic ring
ch - chain
sc - single crochet
st(s) - stitch(es)
rnd: round
yo: yarn over
sl st - slip stitch
Pattern:
leave a long tail (you'll make feathers later) and make
a mr, ch 1
6 sc in the ring (pull yarn to close it)
rnd 1: 2 sc in each of the 6 sts you made (12)
rnd 2: 2 sc in every 2nd st (18)
rnd 3: 2 sc in every 3rd st (24)
rnd 4 - 6: sc around (24)
rnd 7: 2 sc in every 4th (30)
rnd 8: 2 sc in every 5th (36)
rnd 9: 2 sc in every 6th (42)
rnd 10 - 12: sc around (42)
rnd 13: decrease every 6th (36)
rnd 14: decrease every 5th (30)
rnd 15: decrease every 4th (24)
rnd 16: decrease every 3rd (18)
Put the eyes on 6 rows down from the mr. Leave 3 sts
between them.
rnd 17: decrease every 2nd (12) Stuff the bird.
rnd 18: sc around (12)
rnd 19: decrease each (6) Fasten off. Don't sew the
bird yet.
Beak:
You'll make the beak a row below the eyes in the 3 sts
between them. I start by making an outline (a little
triangle). After you make the outline, you can keep
sewing until you fill in the beak. I usually sew right in
the middle (from the bottom of beak until very top).
When you're done, pull yarn to the very bottom of
bird (where you fasten off) and through that whole.
Make a nod, stuff the rest of the yarn in the bird, and
sew the bird.
