  • Sew the Beak at Round 6 and make sure it will cover round 7 to round 9, but it’s up to you

  • Insert the safty eyes here on Rnd 7 , same row as the beak but make sure it’s one stitch apart from the beak.

  • I designed Rnd 14 to crochet back loop only to form a base that the chics can really sit properly so they won’t be like wobbling around, if you want them to look more like an egg-shape, you can just crochet normally on this round to create a rounder shape for the chics.

  • Now you can stuff the body and keep going to the last round.

Rnd15--- 8 /\ , X (9) Close off. Fasten off the weave in the yarn.

Sew the hands/wings to the sides.

Tails , Comb and Wattle

Cut the tails and comb and wattle off from the red felt cloth

Fold the tail and Hot glue them together like this

Hot glue these 3 parts to the body like what you see in the picture

Meet your own Rooster Positive! May this little fellow bring you the power of positive for the whole year!
