Product Details

Birds that reside mostly in forests are called arboreal birds. In this pattern you’ll find thegreat spotted woodpecker***,*** common cuckoo***,*** hawfinch***,*** long-tailed tit***,*** wood warblerandshort-toed treecreeper*. Maybe, this spring, head for the forest on a birdwatching tour and see your knitted feathered friends come to life!*

These birds make great, colorful hanging ornaments, for your Easter branches for example!

The 7.5 - 9 cm birds were knitted flat on 2.25 mm dpn (UK 13, US 1) with some intarsia color work, short rows and i-cords. The tiny beaks were made on 1 mm dpn in lace gauged yarn, but can also be done in a heavier yarn or scraps of felt.

Each bird is an easy, small, fast and fun project, that can be finished in an evening or so and perfect to use up any scraps you have lying around.
