Great pattern , easy to follow. Thank you so much. I have enjoyed doing these in different yarns & sizes.
Hi, I enjoyed using your chick pattern and made one (it is so cute 😊 thank you!) using the link from your blog. I wanted to make another and went to the pattern but cannot find the pattern part for the head. I am confused.
Please could you help?
Thank you.
