Who doesn’t love chickens? Here are a few of the fantastic free chicken patterns I have found.
This Chicken Shawl Pattern is written in U.K. terms. I think it would be well worth changing it to U.S terms just to have an amazing chicken shawl.

Pattern Notes:
* The chain 1 does not count as a stitch throughout this pattern
* This pattern is a repetition of 4 different heart motifs, the first two Motifs are used for the first half of the scarf and the second two motifs are used for the second half of the scarf.
* In between each motif you will have 3 rows of HDC unless otherwise noted
* When you see “HDC x” the number afterwards tells you how many HDC you will be making ex. HDC x 21 means that you will be making 1 HDC in each of the next 21 stitches. HDC x 10 means that you will make 10 HDC 1 in each of the next 10 stitches of the row.
