Notes

A very cute little bird. Many thanks to the designer for sharing it. I needed several robins in different sizes, so this one was perfect for the middle sized one.

It’s tricky to know where the color changes are, but one can center the contrast color by eye. The rates of increases and decreases are in good proportion. The end of row stitch counts are very helpful.

I appreciate the comments noted by others that the wings and head are constructed in one piece.

I relied on the very good pictures and notes by Claire, ScotiaSpinner, in particular:
Robin Ornament. Thanks, Ms. Claire in Canada!
