Here's the granny square tutorial: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wfeQI_ItoCc.html Please note: I am the original designer of the Granny Square Chicken, published October 2023. Since then, I've seen a lot of copycat patterns using my instructions without permission, going against my terms of use. That is illegal and I am working on contacting those designers to remove them one by one.
This is great because there's so many beautiful squares I want to make but I don't want to make a blanket. So now I'm just gonna make an army of chickens instead 😂❤
I was thinking the same thing. I sell things at flea markets and craft fairs I have over 100 granny squares at any given time because I sell them because some people can't make them but they want to make things with them. And I was thinking I can use the ones that are not really popular to make these. Happy crocheting everyone
There is currently (2023-24)a trend for "emotional support chickens"....larger chickens that are knitted. They are cute as the dickens...but this is w-a-y cuter. I love that these are small and could be tucked into a purse. I have been wanting to make an emotional support chicken for a girlfriend of mine that has trauma related issues, but just felt the knitted ones were a bit too large. This is the perfect solution for something smaller she can carry/take with her. Thank you for another great tutorial 🤗
@@sunnysideoflife777 It's currently a big thing in L.A.....but, if you think about it you can knit squares in a pattern of your choice and I bet it'll be just as cute. I think if you put "emotional support chicken" in the YT search bar you'll find some options for the knitted version. 🤗
So glad I watched the tutorial. Mine was not coming out, but I realized it's because I"m left-handed-- needed to do it facing the opposite direction. These are so Cute! Thanks!
I made one of these today just for fun and I love it. I live in the country and all my friends here have chickens, so I'll be making heaps of these to gift to them. Thanks.
Oh my gosh, I'm going to make the chicken with exactly your Spring Court Granny Squares; however, I got to thinking that if someone has other squares with light and airy holes, they can always put their stuffing in a leg of some pantyhose (that you tie off inside after you're sure you like it; right before closing up the chicken). I saw another gal that makes big plushies use pantyhose stuffing liners and I thought that was brilliant!
Hi Jade: I finally finished! It’s just so cute. I’m sure my next one will go faster. Now that I bought all those different size eyes, guess I’ll be making more of your amigurumi projects. Thank you so much for sharing your time to make tutorials. 💜😎🇺🇸
Thank you so much for designing and teaching us this adorable patterns! I just foubd you channel and this chicken last night. Several have stolen or copied your design. You are the designer. Thank you again! My grandchildren will love these! xxx🐥
Thank you so much for your kind words! I know your grandchildren will absolutely love beautifully handmade gifts! Can you share with me links of the stolen/copied projects? If it's easier, you can email them to me at sweetsofties (at) gmail, or send them via Instagram @SweetSofties. This would help me out so much! I rely on my viewers to tell me about these things because the internet is so vastly, I have trouble trakcing down all of the copied/stolen content despite best efforts. I really appreciate it!
This is so cute!! 😭🥹🩷 I immediately ordered yarn to make this. I think the colours you chose go so well together and such an original idea. Love your work!
I just made two of them, and they came out so cute! My sister will be sending them to her friend in Tennessee because she loves chickens/Hens... Thank you for such a cute pattern!
This chicken pattern made with your Spring Court Granny Square turned out so pretty. I did have to put my safety eyes in one stitch behind where you put yours because when I put them in the chain 2 space the immediately pulled out.
I can't wait to make these! I love making granny squares and these are so cute! I have a bunch of holiday colors in some sparkly Caron Simply Soft yarn that might be fun since Christmas is right around the corner. Thanks for a sharing such a great pattern! Your tutorials are wonderful!!
I just made a dozen of them! I added a piece of yarn through the top of the crown and going to give as gifts for Christmas ornaments. My corner hole was too big and I had trouble with keeping eyes in so I sewed hole closed first. I also hate to sew, so I just slip stitched closed using outside loops. I LOVE THIS PATTERN!! You and the tutorial are wonderful! Thanks for sharing it!
Fabulous. I found the granny square pattern and your tutorial helped me with the beak, head frill and tail! Brilliant tutorial, so easy to follow and such a calming vouce you have! Thank you ❤!
Thank you!! yay! And yes you can sell them if you credit me as the pattern designer with my website, such as: "Pattern design by Sweet Softies, www.sweetsofties.com"
I belong to a random act of crochet kindness. This would be perfect to leave "hidden" for someone to find. I just need to come up with a catchy message to put with it!
This chicken is so adorable! I love the colors you picked for it. I've not crocheted in a while (had to recover from a wrist injury) but I think this project will be easy enough to slowly get back into crocheting. Thank you so much for sharing. By the way, may I know what sort of plier that was that you used to press the back of the safety eyes in? I've always struggled with fastening the safety eyes since they tend to be tight.
Thank you so much! I'm going to go purchase your granny square you used here to help support you. I also gave you the 👍 and subscribed. I'll post have to look and see if you've crocheted any small dolls. New grandparents and would like to make a grandma and grandpa for her.
Thanks so much for the support!! I do have small doll patterns - check out "Pocket People" on my channel for an easy no-sew doll that can easily be customized!

@@SweetSofties I’m just seeing this today, 3 months later. Where can I find this wonderful tool? I absolutely adore chickens and glad I stumbled upon you. Immediately subscribed💕
I got excited to finish off my chicken so I sewn it all the way, i haven't finish the video so now that i finished watching i realized the back butt should be sewn flat. Now my chicken is square lol.
