Easter Earl

Easter Earl
Designed by Rachel Brockman

Chirp, chirp, chirp! Say hello to Easter Earl! This little hatchling is dapper and sweet. He spends each morning perfectly styling the tufts of feathers on his head and securing a colorful bowtie around his neck. He’s a cheerful chick with some pep in his step. Won’t you be his new best friend?

PATTERN NOTES
Easter Earl is knit seamlessly in the round, with the exception of the bowtie, which is knit flat. The body is knit in one piece. Then, the beak, bowtie, wings, and feet are worked separately and sewn to the body. Small tufts of scrap yarn are attached to the head with a crochet hook.
