Treasures Cuckoo Clock
Our charming replica of a cuckoo clock is a dream! Worked in a textured stitch, our crochet clock boasts petite pineapple weights, a miniature bird, and a scalloped eave. Embellished with crochet leaves, a small flocked bird sits in the doorway ready to greet visitors. It’s a novelty project that’s sure to challenge but provide the joy that any crafter would love to indulge in.
