Dotty the Decorative Chicken

🐔 Meet Dotty – Chicken Bunting, Coaster & Christmas Decoration Crochet Pattern

Meet Dotty the Crochet Chicken, a wonderfully pretty little hen with not one, but three different ways to use her! Make Dotty as a decorative coaster, add a hanging loop to turn her into a Christmas tree decoration, or crochet a whole flock and join them together to create charming chicken bunting.

With her beautiful circular motif body, little tail, bright comb and characterful chicken face, Dotty is a lovely quick project that's perfect for experimenting with different colours and using smaller amounts of yarn from your stash.

Make your chickens all the same for a coordinated look or give every Dotty in your flock her own colour combination and personality.
