Ross the Turkey has been a festive favourite for many TOFT fans since his debut in 2015. Boasting one of the most colourful selections of TOFT yarn, this bird is a great pattern to practise your colour changing with. Did you know that wild turkeys can run up to 25mph, and can even fly in short bursts?

This crochet bird kit contains TOFT’s quality pure wool yarn and an easy-to-follow downloadable pattern. There are video links for all the crochet stitches and techniques used in the pattern to get you started and help you complete your toy.
