Free Crochet Chick Bag Pattern for Kids
Play with, and carry around as a pouch. Today, I have a free pattern for some really fun crochet chicks for summer. Following this, you will learn how to crochet the dressed chick amigurumi that, at the same time, is a small pouch and bag charm. So, maybe you have found your next picnic buddy.
These white chicks wear a collared jumper in any color you find favorite (pink, purple, yellow, etc) and a fruit bucket hat with a leaf top.
You can place them on your desktop as buddies, and while travelling, attach them to your main bag. Below, I will provide you with both the US and UK patterns.
The designer behind this is @NITKA_KZ – she has quite a good grasp on kawaii amigurumi designing with added cuteness and surprises.
