Birds of a Feather

My grandmother has a country kitchen--complete with a red wall and cute decorative chicken accessories. And so when I saw Michelle's fabulous take on the Knit Chicken pattern from Blue Sky Alpacas, well of course I had to make it for Grandma! The pattern is cute, but the chart just makes it! I used a different yarn than she did but otherwise copied everything verbatim.



It's silly, I know, but I cannot tell you how much I love this chicken! And since Michelle was so generous as to post her chart on her blog, I predict flocks of these little gals will soon be showing up everywhere! More details on my little Henrietta (yes, that is her name), are on Ravelry and in the gallery.
