Another bird completed from the book "Edward's Menagerie - Birds" by Kerry Lord. Huck the Pelican is a level 1 bird with respect to difficulty. I chose Huck as I really wanted to make that gorgeous pelican beak. After having completed Sophia the Flamingo, this bird was relatively straight forward. I think I'm really starting to get the hang of sewing limbs/parts together too! I had a much easier time making the feet and claws this time around, thanks again to having made the flamingo. It was even easier as I didn't have to change colour. In the pattern it is suggested that you may sew the beak closed, or leave it open to fit fish in! I decided to leave mine open, but unfortunately haven't had the opportunity to make any fish. Do you own "Edward's Menagerie - Birds"? What birds have you made? Materials used:
3.5 mm crochet hook 1. Loops & Threads, Ringspun yarn in Off White (medium weight [4], 145m/100g); I used the leftover ball of yarn used from making my first BB-8. 2. Lion Brand, Vanna's Choice yarn in Mustard (medium weight [4], 156m/100g; I estimate that approximately one third of the ball of yarn was used. 3. Loops & Threads, Impeccable yarn in Black (medium weight [4], 245m/128g; I estimate I used less than one third of this ball of yarn.
