Free crochet rooster pattern: a Punk Rooster amigurumi, about 10 cm tall in DK yarn with a 2.5 mm hook. A white rooster in a black jacket with grey lapels and a zip, black sunglasses, a tall rainbow mohawk comb and a colourful tail fan. You need about 100 m of yarn: 25 m black, 15 m white, 10 m green, 10 m blue, 10 m purple, 10 m orange, 5 m red, 5 m yellow, 5 m dark grey and 5 m pink. Plan on roughly 3 hours. A fun gift for a rock fan or a chicken lover, and a bold shelf character. Spin the 3D model and crochet it round by round.
