Can I sell my finish product. I will give credit to this pattern.
You can sell finished products and please write the name of the designer.
Can this pattern be shared? After making some I have been asked online for the pattern.
Do you have a pattern for a bigger chicken?
Just a heads up. There is someone who is making and selling these and deliberately not giving the designer credit. She posts her finished product on instagram and deletes comments with the pattern link and/or designer’s name.
I love this pattern!! I have a student who has chickens. I had to make it for her. Thank you so much!! It is so cute!
I just finished my chicken and now I use her as the Great Yarn Chicken and give her offerings (usually chocolate) whenever I am playing yarn chicken . She usually grants my entreaties and allows my yarn to extend to the end of my project.
