  The bird measures approx. 2” inches across from head to tail but can vary based on yarn and hook size.

MATERIALS
*Crochet hook size 3.5mm & 2.5mm
*Worsted weight yarn: small amounts of any two colors you like and orange for the beak

PATTERN NOTES
  Their's no need to slip stitch and/or chain when going to the next round unless stated to do so.
  Numbers in ( ) at the end of each round or row indicate the total number of stitches for that round or row.

ASSEMBLY
  I recommend pinning the heart wing in place before sewing it to make sure you have it in the position you like best before sewing.
  Embroidery the eye.
