This is the pattern for a pheasant appliqué. I do have this pattern available for free on my website if you would prefer that option. The link is down below, but I’ve made it available for people to download as well for $1 on Ravelry.

There is also a video tutorial for the pattern available on my YouTube channel at Crochet Pheasant Tutorial.

I’ve used 2 ply cotton and a 1mm crochet hook but you can use different sizes depending on what you’re most comfortable with.

• Crochet cotton or wool, I used Scheepjes Maxi Sweet Treat 2 ply crochet cotton colours (388) Rust, (401) Dark Teal, (106) Snow White, (404) English Tea, (390) Poppy Rose, (162) Black Coffee and (179) Topaz.

• A crochet hook, I used a 1mm hook.

• Scissors.

• Darning needle to weave in ends.

• Sewing thread and needle to stitch the pheasant together.

• Black and grey thread to embroider on eye and markings.
