Granny-Hen for Easter Decorations

Matching to the Granny Bunnies and the Granny Eggs there are now also the Granny Hens.

They are a wonderful Easter decoration, e.g. for the Easter bush, as a decorative element on the door wreath or as a window decoration. You can also conjure up a mobile for the nursery or use it as a bag or key chain - a great gift for hens lovers.

The body consists of 2 Grannies, which are crocheted super fast in only 2 rounds each. With the 3rd round, these two grannies are then joined together, comb and tail feathers are incorporated.

The legs consist of a continuous chain and are crocheted in - here you do not have to sew on or sew. Only the beak is fixed separately.

!! This pattern applies only to the Granny Hens !!
