Sunny Tutu the (crocheted) Emotional Support Chicken

Sunny was abandoned in November to make way for holiday knitting. She is one of my UFO's that is now an FO (per my New Year's resolution). I know she hasn't been a UFO for long, but it made sense to work backwards through my UFO list.


Pattern: Emotional Support Chicken (crochet) by Annette Corsino
Yarn: Mostly Cascade 220 (maybe some Valley Yarn) naturally dyed with sunflower and turmeric (and a little onion skin and dyers coreopsis)
Hook: G
Modifications: The summary page on Ravelry specifies an F hook, but the written pattern calls for a 4.5mm, which is between G and H, so I used G


The bottom makes this softie fairly stable, so she sits pretty just about anywhere she nests.


Turmeric is not very colorfast, so I will not be surprised if Sunny fades a bit. I'll keep her out of the light as much as possible, without hiding her away in a closet.
