Despite having the generous plumage of the rest of their brethren these three little Snowbirds like to go one step further when it comes to keeping warm. As soon as the first flurry of snowflakes touches down they’re off to dig out their favourite sweaters and matching bobble hats before the first snowball fight begins.

This listing is for a detailed written pattern, with complimentary photos to help you along the way.

When made with light worsted weight (DK/8 ply) yarn and a 3 mm hook each snowbird measures approximately 6” (15 cm) tall. Safety eye size - 8 mm.

They also make great little Christmas Tree decorations when made with 2 ply crochet thread and a 1.5 mm hook.

This pattern is written in American crochet terminology and includes a handy stitch conversion chart so you can translate to British crochet terms instead should you wish to.
