I'm switching to a WordPress blog instead of using this Blogger platform for various reasons, so this pattern has been relocated.

What is the name of the flower that's on the body of the chicken potholder
What Flower?
Love your pattern! I now have chickens hanging on the wall over my stove! Thank you! Diyhowto.Com has a link to your page with a picture of your chicken. Placed on top of it is a flower potholder. They used the same colors for both so it appears as if the flower is part of your chicken pattern. The pattern for the flower is posted down further on their page.
Where is the pattern for the chicken with the flower on the body? thanks for sharing this wonderful pattern.
I dont have that one
HELP!!
I am not getting the correct stitch count starting on row 3 😕
Did you watch the Video?
Row 3. Chain 3 (Counts as Dc), work 2 dc in the next, *dc in the next, work 2 dc in the next *Repeat across, Do Not Connect, Turn -33 dc
Are you not getting 33 dc?
Could you please tell me the pattern for the flower that is on the body of the chicken pattern? I sure would appreciate so much.
Thank you too.
I dont have it
How do you do the pinwheel that is on some of them?
I dont have that pattern
nice post
That is a border
Is there any way to make this stiffer so that when it hangs it's not so flimsy? Like make 2 sewn together?
yes both of those are good ideas to try.
Im new to crocheting and i want to say thank you for making it so easy to learn. You're awesome
Thank you could find the pattern until now.
I made two identical chicken bodies (finishing off after the first body), used the sc "spine" row at the top of body #2 to join the 2 pieces together at the top (I also knotted together the 2 ends from the respective magic circles for greater stability). After making the head on body #2, I used the next few sc and final sl st to seal the breast of the chicken. Finally, I used the finishing scallops of the bottom (where I used brown yarn so it would look like a broody hen sitting on a clutch of brown eggs) to finish sealing the two bodies together.
I made the entire chicken with size H hook, which looks a bit neater, I think. I doubled the thickness by making two main parts, including heads. I connected them together by doing the top of head, beak,& waddle through both thicknesses. I put an eye on each side of potholder ( so it's reversible!). I connected the curved bottom with single crochet in same color as main part of chicken before doing the shell row in multicolored yarn. I whip-stitched the center area together( I did not crochet up & down the center edge; instead, I whip-stitched it together & added a ch10 loop separately at the very end.I also whip-stitched the breast area together. Turned out really cute! Thanks for the pattern.
Love this pattern, Im new to crocheting but I will give this a whirl, how much yarn does the pattern require?

a skein or less of yarn for each color
Where might i find the pattern for the center of the chicken?
How do you make a magic circle?
There are many videos on the magic circle, here are a few, single crochet one, https://youtu.be/eQmTGWAStvo, double one, https://youtu.be/SBfGVrMNkLQ
Just finished this potholder for one of my friends who loves chickens and roosters. I can't wait to see her face when I give it to her! Thanks for the pattern!
Is this just for decoration or can I actually use them?
yes you can use it and I think it you make it double sided then it will be thick enough for heat.
Beautiful! Thank you.
Using 2 strands of yarn instead of one will make it sturdier as well as more protection from heat.
.
So sweet! I can't wait to give this a try. Thank you for the pattern. Be safe, All. 🧶🐔
Where's the pattern for the nice one with the pinwheel I keep seeing in the photos linked to this tut?
Para que quede más armado se le puede poner una tela en la parte de atrás y así no perdería la forma
On Makin it stiffer.u can use spray starch or mouse podge lightly on bk side
Thank you so much for this exciting pattern. I was so happy with the outcome that I next made one with jute twine (and no separate colours). Having used this twine on a different project I pre-washed the twine in fabric softener. It was gratefully received as a present I'm glad to say.
What is the finished size?
Loved the extra "coaching"from the video. Thanks so much!
Happy it helped! its about 5-6 inches across.

I just made these for a commission! I hope you view my blog and check out how they turned out. I enjoyed making these so much. Instead of whip-stitching 2 together to make it thicker, I just crocheted with two strands of the yarn, which made them very nice. I appreciate this easy pattern. Thanks!
