Step by step Guide

Starting with a Magic Circle

1. Wrap your yarn up and over your finger, forming a cross in the front.
2. Insert your hook underneath the cross, take the yarn from the other side, and pull it through.
3. Yarn over and pull through the loop on your hook to form a magic circle.

Chain and Single Crochets

1. Make a chain one (does not count as a stitch).
2. Make six single crochets into the magic circle.
3. Pull the tail to tighten the circle.

Marking and Increasing Stitches

1. Mark your last stitch of the round using a paper clip or stitch marker.
2. For Round 2, increase in each stitch (2 single crochets in one stitch) for a total of 12 single crochets.

Rounding Out the Body

1. For Round 3, alternate one single crochet and one increase (total of 18 single crochets).
2. Continue to Round 4 by placing one single crochet into each stitch of the previous round (18 single crochets). Repeat this for Rounds 5 and 6.

Placing the Safety Eyes

1. Center the face by placing safety eyes between rounds 5 and 6.

Decreasing Stitches

1. For Round 7, start decreasing by using the invisible decrease method.
2. Continue decreasing through Rounds 8-15, gradually reducing the number of stitches to shape the body.

Closing the Hole & Making Wings

1. Cut the excess yarn, leaving a long enough tail for sewing.
2. Weave the tail in and out through the front loops of all the stitches of this round to close the hole.
3. Make the wings starting with a magic circle, and continue with single crochets and half-double crochets to shape them.

Adding the Beak

1. Center the beak in between rounds 5 and 6.
2. Use orange yarn, crochet a few stitches to form the beak, and hide the tails into the body.

Adding the Eyes

1. Glue black beads (optional) or embroider using the French knot technique.
2. Secure the yarn tails at the back of the head and hide the knots into the body.

Attaching the Wings

1. Sew the wings onto the body, aligning them with the eyes.
2. Use the tails from the wings to tie and secure the wings in place.

Adding the Keychain

1. Use the yarn tail from the head to attach the keychain.
