Schnelles Geschenk zu Ostern

Sehr gut geschriebene Anleitung, die Hühner sind schnell und einfach gehäkelt. Ich hatte das normale Catania Garn doppelt genommen. Das passte zwar von der Größe, wurde aber sehr starr und sperrig. So bin ich umgestiegen auf ein preiswertes Acrylgarn und mit dem Ergebnis sehr zufrieden.

    Wie sieht es aus mit Wolke/Acryl für diese Eiermützen, das hält die Wärme ja eigentlich besser? Grundsätzlich arbeite ich lieber mit BW.
