Spring Chicken Easter Knitting Pattern
Are you ready for some delightful chicken knitting? Dive into this illustrated 8-page knitting pattern that takes you step-by-step through the process of crafting a charming, plump hen—an ideal project for Easter gifts and decorations. This adorable knitted hen measures 24cm tall and can be easily made with just one ball of white Stylecraft Special Chunky yarn, allowing you to create two chickens in total! Best of all, if you're pressed for time to whip up Easter treats, this lovely hen can be knitted up in an afternoon, making it a quick and enjoyable project!
This knitting pattern is suitable for knitters with basic skills—perfect for those who can cast on and off, knit, purl, and perform increases and decreases. The design features flat knitting, so there's no need to tackle the complexities of knitting in the round, which makes it accessible for beginners and seasoned knitters alike.
To create your adorable chicken, you'll need some chunky yarn in white—alongside small amounts of chunky yarn in vibrant yellow and bold red. While you can use any yarn brands you prefer, we recommend Stylecraft Special Chunky in White for the main body, complemented by tiny bits of Stylecraft Special Chunky in Matador Red and King Cole Big Value Chunky in Yellow for those charming details. Just imagine the joy this plump hen will bring to your Easter celebrations!
