This is the patterns to make the rabbit, the chicken and the chicks. Back ground mat and flowers are not included.

You only need small amounts of yarn: about 10 g white DK (8ply) and small amounts of red, soft yellow and yellow or orange. You can stuff them with toy filling, wool or cotton wool.

A pair of 2.75mm (US 2) needles are used. They are knitted flat and sewn together at the end. No circular needles required.

The comb of the chicken is crochet, but there is an alternative to make the comb without crochet.

Knitting skill is basic; knit, purl, kf/b(knit into the front loop and the back loop, creating extra stitch) and k2tog (knit two stitches together).

Takes only 2-3 hours for the project.
