I’m with you guys with a plush crochet chicken named Piu Piu. The crochet chicken will be approximately 10 cm high when completed. If you wish, you can make a beautiful key chain from a cute chicken. It is a very suitable pattern for this. The designer used YarnArt Dolce plush yarn and a 4mm hook to make such a small crochet chicken. The cute chicken’s head and body are made from one piece, so it’s pretty easy to make. Follow the detailed step by step free pattern instruction and pictures and complete the crochet a chicken.
