Chunky Chicken

The 80s are calling and the rustic chickens are back! Those of us in the crochet community are always on the lookout for a new, quick no-sew crochet pattern to sell at our vendor events or online. Purchasing patterns adds up, so I’m here to provide a staple that has proven to be very popular in the recent year or so: Chickens!  There are a ton of patterns out there available for purchase, but I didn’t really find one that I meshed with. Thus, this pattern was born. A chicken is a great first-time amigurumi project!  It uses very simple stitches and technique. I hope that this patterns treats you well. **Materials**: Size 6 Bulky yarn in yellow (beak), red (comb), and a main color for the body. I used big twist plush yarn 15mm safety eyes or black yarn for embroidery. Size 8mm hook stitch markers Polyfil Yarn needle for embroidery and weaving **Abbreviations** SC - single crochet dec - single crochet decrease inc - single crochet increase MC- Magic Circle (can use 2 chain method) BLO- Back loop only Slst - slip stitch FO- fasten off
