Crochet an Easter chicken – a PDF crochet pattern for a fillable chicken: a plastic egg gets a white crocheted cover with a comb, beak, wings, feet and tail, and it opens in the middle. It is about 15 cm / 6 inches tall.

It is crocheted with white yarn, plus scraps of yellow, red, orange and black. Filled with sweets or a little surprise, it becomes the star of the Easter basket – and comes back every year.
