Chick

Free crochet master class for Chick by Tatyana Bodrova @tata.igrushki.

With this tutorial, you can crochet tiny plush chick keychains with bows. For this amigurumi, any plush yarn / velvet yarn will work: LaVita Velur, Himalaya Velvet, Himalaya Dolphin Baby, and others. All parts are crocheted in a spiral unless noted otherwise. One toy uses very little yarn (you can use leftovers). The feet are crocheted separately and attached while crocheting the body. The beak is made with puff stitches.
