Hens „Berta and Gundel“ – Crochet Pattern

Product description

These cute, cheeky hens will put you in a good mood and make you smile. You can decorate your Easter bush, door wreath, window etc. with them. These funny chickens are also an eye-catcher as bag danglers or key rings. They are quick to crochet and you only need a few scraps of wool.

The body consists of 2 congruent parts, which are sewn together later. So that the beautiful side of the pattern can be seen on both sides of the hens, the front and back are worked mirror-inverted to each other. This means that the hens also look very pretty on a bush, as a window decoration, mobile etc., as there is no reverse side, so to speak.

The technique is a mixture of Tunisian and traditional crochet.

Schöne Anleitung
Die Anleitung ist gut verständlich und das Ergebnis schnell gehäkelt. Auch toll zur Resteverwertung. Ich habe einige Hühnchen zu Ostern verschenkt: die Freude war groß😊

praktisches und hübsches Geschenk zugleich
gut beschrieben, lässt sich an einem Nachmittag machen, mit Schlüsselanhänger ein praktischer Taschenbaumler für Kleinkram wie Lippenstift oder ein paar Hustenbonbons etc. Für den Körper kann man statt der in der Anleitung angegebenen Masche auch andere Maschenarten verwenden wie z.B. feste Maschen oder Strickstich.

Adventskalender für "Fashionistas 3.0" - acht traumhafte Modelle
Es hat so einen Spaß gemacht, meine Freundin und ich haben uns die Anleitung geteilt und dann zusammen gehäkelt. Es war manchmal nicht so einfach, aber mit Geduld und gemeinsames tüfteln haben wir es geschafft! Jeder hat seine Taschen mit individuellen Farben gefertigt. Vielen Dank für die entzückende Idee

macht süchtig
sehr gut geschriebene Anleitung! Ich selbst habe kein Video zusätzlich gebraucht, da gut mit Fotos erklärt wird. Da die Größe variabel ist, kann man sehr gut Reste wirkungsvoll verwerten und es macht Spaß auch mal exotische Farbkombinationen auszuprobieren.... hab erst 20 fertig
