I opted to do german short rows instead of W&T (as I always do) and it worked out just fine. I also decided to top sewing the butt portion about an inch from thetop and then folded it opposite ways (as pictured) to sew my tail to-I just thought it gave it a more fun tail shape that way..

No matter how many times I tell this stupid project that I am knitting it it keeps telling me I am crocheting it. That is what I get for adding it to my projects on April 1st. uggh. I used US 6 needles.

welp…errata says row 22…but lordy I don’t see a row 22 to correct. So I’m confused and I haven’t even started! haha!

I chose medium based on the short rows-but it is a very easy pattern. There are a few minor editing issues (the only reason I thought about giving it a 4-I downloaded it for free-but I noticed it is a paid pattern now, so I have to rate it more seriously) but nothing that affects the pattern-it works well and it is a very cute finished hen! :)
