Free crochet pigeon pattern: a Pigeon in a Tiny Hat amigurumi, about 15 cm tall in DK yarn with a 2.5 mm hook. A plump light grey pigeon with darker wings and two black wing bars, a green and purple neck band, orange eyes and a stern face wears a ridiculously tiny black top hat. You need about 115 m of yarn: 50 m light grey, 10 m charcoal, 10 m grey, 5 m dark grey, 5 m purple, 5 m teal, 5 m ebony, 5 m coral, 5 m slate grey, 5 m pink, 5 m dark brown and 5 m white. Plan on roughly 4 hours. It makes a funny gift for bird watchers and anyone with a sense of humour. Spin the 3D model to check the tiny hat and follow the round-by-round pattern.
