Krissys Over The Mountain Crochet

And Crafts

Chicken Sweaters Are Going To The Hens

This photo is showing two crochet chicken sweaters. the one on the left is white with black trim. The chicken sweater on the right is black with white trim.

Words can’t express how excited we are at Krissy’s House! If the weather cooperates, a ride to church will ensue, and it is there that Miss Jenny will receive Chicken Sweaters to try for her sweet hen Sparkle, who is having some health issues, and I have now written the pattern. You can pick up the crochet pattern here

Three crochet chicken sweaters with a flouncy edge. The sweater on the left is white with black flouncy shell stitches, and black buttons. The center chicken sweater is just lie the one on the left, except it has pink trim. The chicken sweater on the right is black with white trim and white buttons.                                                 

 

It seems that Sparkle began to molt, and while Miss Jenny was baby sitting a border collie, he chased her down and pulled out her feathers, and her skin is red and chapped. Those feathers will not grow back until Spring, and that is a long way off.

When the design process starts, there is always more than one idea rolling around in my head, and leaving them undone is unthinkable. So now there are three designs for her to choose from.

1. An extended Scalloped edge

2. A Simple lace edge

3. The original scalloped edge

Two crochet chicken sweaters with a simple shell edge at the bottom. The left sweater is pink and the right sweater is gray.

 

So the good news for Sparkle is, there will be a few designs for Miss Jenny to choose from. Let’s hope they fit, and that the weather will allow us to get to church in the morning.

    Was just looking at your darling chicken sweaters! I was thinking how cute they would look on a little doggy. I don’t have one, but was wondering if you know if they will fit a doggy?

      Thank you so much! They might fit a smaller doggie. I would make the under belly smaller and shorter.

        I also have a doggie sweater pattern, it’s a part of my “A Walk In The Park” Series.
