Amigurumi chick free pattern.

 

Hello all! Spring has officially arrived in most parts of the world. Here's a super cute chick pattern to welcome spring. With Easter coming up soon, I think this little chick would make cute basket stuffers for little kids.

Edit:

Many have requested pattern for the frog hat on Instagram. So I have updated the pattern to include a frog and bunny hat for the little chick.  Enjoy making them :)
