Grayson is just your average American robin. His musical voice greets the beginning of Spring as he hops around yards, looking for worms. He’s not looking for a bite to eat, however. An avid rose-enthusiast, Grayson hopes to find more worms to deposit in his favorite rose garden to make the ground more amiable to his favorite flower.

MATERIALS/GAUGE NOTE
Gauge is not a critical factor for this project. If desired, it can be made with any size hook and with any weight of yarn. Adjust hook size/yarn size to obtain desired fabric. I am a very tight crocheter and you may find that you need to go down a hook size or two to eliminate unsightly holes in your toy.
