Here’s my birdie! But is there a way to change colors without noticing they were changed? Had a hard time with that
Cute! I like the green you chose.
Hy, I have a recomendation for the color changes! Even though i am not sure if they work for changing half way through a round i hope this helps. So when the upcoming stitch is a new color pull through the two loops of the previous stitch with the new color, then if you are going to single crochet you yarn over with your past color and you finish the stitch yarning over and passing through the two loops with the new color!
I know this is not very esy to follow but i did my best explaining!
Also, if you are a begginer, i do not recommend this since it is a bit difficult to keep your stitches tight and neat.
If you do not understand my explenation please tell me and I will explain again!
Thats great! Should work out good, thanks
Had fun creating this. I modified it a bit as the beak seemed a little too thick for a hummingbird, so I wrapped wire in black thread then hot-glued it to the face. Really pleased at how it turned out.
