This customizable birdie is a fun, quick, satisfying knit project! It’s also perfect for using up bits of
leftover yarns or even trying out new additions to your stash. Use any weight of yarn in any colors
of your choice and make up your own birds or let nature inspire you and knit your birds in the
colors of your favorite birdies!

ADDITIONAL MATERIALS
split-ring stitch marker
small amount of stuffing
tapestry and sewing needles
safety eyes, pair of buttons, or small amount of felt for non-embroidered eyes
black and white embroidery floss or thread for sewn eyes

GAUGE
Not essential - just be sure your knit fabric is taught enough to not allow stuffing to poke through.

NOTES
The Song Bird Totem is worked from the beak to the neck in the round. The optional trim is added after the head is finished. This design can be made using any weight yarn to achieve a different sized bird head from teeny tiny to oversized. Ten color variations are included in the written instructions, but you can easily adjust the colors and really go wild!
