Happy Easter

Polly in the UK sent in her peep along with its friend the pig.

She turned the wings into ears & added an icord tail…brilliant.

I’m so making some of these!
Cordelia sent in a cellphone shot of the ones she made her stepkids

Jen made all sorts of variations for her knitting circle & sent the directions to do the chicken variation.

Row 2: K1, kfb (3 stitches)
Row 3: Bind off 1 stitch, k1 (2 stitches)
