Beginner Friendly Easter project written using US crochet terms.

For the nest you will need:
4 mm crochet hook, yarn needle, stitch marker, scissors, two different shades of brown yarn (approx. 10g / 25m each, I used So Crafty Amigurumi yarn but any DK cotton yarn would be suitable for this project) and couple of meters of green yarn for leaves.
My tension is 4 stitches/ 4 rounds = 2.5 x 2.5 cm.
This pattern requires basic knowledge of crochet stitches: magic ring, chain, single crochet, half double crochet, double crochet, treble crochet, back loop crochet and how to crochet in spiral.
Finished nest will be about 5 x 10 cm.
