Today we like to crochet a little chick. With this simple pattern you will crochet really fast the Kiiroitori chick. The crocheted chick is a sweet character of the Japanese Kawaii Comics and the best friend of the Molang bunny.
Here you find the size specifications for the little chick.
Needle Size | Yarn | Height |
2,5 mm (shown example) | 125m / 50g, 100% Cotton | 5cm |
For the little chick we first crochet the body and than the wings, legs, beak and tail. Then all parts will be sewn together and the cheeks get painted.
The body for the little chick we crochet from top down in spiral rounds with only single crochet stitches (US!).
For the little chick we also crochet a tail from back to tip in spiral rounds with only single crochet stitches (US!). The tail wont be filled but foldet flat. Later we sew it with the opening facing to the back with the thread ends.
The wings for the little chick will be crocheted from the tips up in spiral rounds with only single crochet stitches (US!). The wings wont get filled, but folded flat and sewn at the opening later.
The beak for the little chick we crochet from the front back in spiral rounds with only single crochet stitches (US!). Later also some stitches will follow, to get the lower part of the beak.
The legs for the little chick we crochet from bottom up in spiral rounds with only single crochet stitches (US!).
After all parts are finished we only need to put them together. First you should do this with pins, so later everything will fit well.
You will start with sewing the wings. Fold them flat and sew them with the opening horizontally around the 11th round. Each wing has a distance of 2 stitches to the outer edge of the eyes. For sewing you can use the thread ends.
Now you can also sew the tail with the thread ends. Place it on the back and sew it horizontally around the 18th round. The tail is the counterweight to the body, so the chick can be seated.
Next we sew the beak with the opening to the head. Place it exactly between the eyes and let the small flap shows down so it looks like the beak is opened.
Next also the legs will be folded flat and sewn around the 23rd round at the bottom of the body. The legs should have a distance of 2 stitches to each other and you can use here the thread ends as well.
At least take some pink paint and colourize some cheeks.
Finished is your self crocheted Kiiroitori chick. I hope it will make you happy!
