Thank you for sharing this adorable little chick!
I tested it and it's super fun and quick. I put a single black stitch for the eye and I really like how it turned out.. almost looks like a Peep in a way (I used bright yellow). :) Because it takes so little time to make, once I sat down to make them I had to stop myself, because I wanted to make so many more. LOL
Thank you for both of these patterns. I just love them. I can see them being used at anytime through the year, not just easter.
that is super cute!!! You have easter on the brain don't ya? LOL
OMG! I made this chick in yellow originally and then did it in darker yellow, pink, purple and blue and everyone that has seen them have wanted one so I've given away almost all. Easy pattern to do, have it memorized now. Ty Ty for an awesome pattern, for allowing us to share it with our family & friends and putting smiles on a lot of faces.
So cute! Thank you for the free pattern. I hope to make one soon.
