Bramble Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 I've made three of these so far. I found the pattern a little bit hard to follow for the "detail", but I've sort of "found my own way", I'm now agonising over how many to send them and whether the ones I've made are worth sending anyway. It's a nice pattern though, the first one took me a while, but now I've got to grips with it, the others have been quite quick! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat tails Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 I might make a few as well, but have to figure out how many I can send against the costs of sending it to the UK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cat tails Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Is it me or is this pattern in US terms? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ursula123 Posted August 12, 2016 Author Share Posted August 12, 2016 I did it uk terms, turned out ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat tails Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 But did you do trebles (UK term) or double crochets (UK term). Because if I look at the picture it looks more like trebles instead of dc. UK US dc = sc tr = dc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ursula123 Posted August 12, 2016 Author Share Posted August 12, 2016 Hi Catails, I did uk double crochet, will try it with treble crochet tomorrow and see how it comes out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ursula123 Posted August 12, 2016 Author Share Posted August 12, 2016 I think your right Catails, just checked out the pattern writers blog and she lives in the USA. Will compare sizes tomorrow with UK and US stitches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat tails Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 I made a few as birthday gifts. Instead of a ordinary birthday card. Will make a few more for the BHWT. Postage comes to be about €1,25 per three chickens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
