 The Chicken Heart Ornament

 Crochet Pattern 

February Ornament Of The Month -

By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs

💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗

I designed this month's ornament

 for fun and a little bit silliness.

 

I saw this Pink chicken clipart and used it as

 the inspiration for this Month Ornament.

I love it so much. 

It's A Chicken, 

It's A Heart

 So I called it Chicken Love! 💕

and 

It just makes me giggle! 

I Hope You enjoy stitching it up, 

and will make a bunch of them.

I have a lot of friends who love keeping chickens,

 I just know they will love this ornament.

January Ornament of the Month - 2026

Skein of Yarn Ornament - LINK

🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔

The chicken ornament is basically 2 hearts

 to form the body and then we add all the extras,

 including button hearts for the wings. And, no,

The chicken does not have to be pink.

You can make your chicken any colors you like.

 

Use up scrap yarn and make them all sorts of colors.

Bright colors, pastels or traditional Chicken colors.

 Just have fun!
