Hi everybody! I want to let you know that there are two places in this video that I need to make you aware of, so please go to the description above and read the update. Thank you all so much for your support. I truly appreciate each and every one of you! 😍😍
I enjoyed the tutorial but really you should edit the video with your corrections because I didn't read your description at all before starting. I believe UA-cam allows you to add captions mid-video without having to re-upload. I was able to correct myself because I've been crocheting for 30+ years, but someone not as well versed may come across your video and follow your mistakes without knowing better.

You are so sweet! I feel so lucky to have people like you here on my channel! I totally agree with you about UA-cam. I have severe hypoglycemia, and none of the doctors here can figure out why. So, I've been referred to the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota. They are reviewing my chart and will hopefully accept me as a patient.

@@tesslovesyarn oh wow, I hope so much that they accept you as a patient. The Mayo Clinic is amazing. Crossing my fingers for you that you find some answers soon!
The best thing I got from this video is the starter double crochet. I hate the way the 3 chain looks but until now, didn't know what else to do. Thank you so much!
Thank you Facebook algorithm! Someone shared this in a group im not in and it was pushed to me. I had a TERRIBLE craft show and the lady next to me could not stop selling chickens. Sooooo now I have one for myself that is more my style with worsted weight. 😁 I've been wanting more granny square animals (currently working on a spider as a present).
@catrinanerey1596 Hi Catrina! These are so quick and fun to make! Just be mindful of your opening so you put the face parts in the correct position. The opening gets sewn together horizontally, so sew three sides, then squish the opening together horizontally and check to see what corner the face and other parts need to go on. Have fun, dear! 😍
Thank you so much for this great tutorial! I had no plans to ever make a chicken until I saw the Granny Square Chicken!! I made mine in Autumn colors. SOOO cute!!
This is so stinking adorable!!! Going to make just because…will be giving to people to spread a little joy!!! Thank you for sharing your talent with us!!! Stay safe and be blessed ❤
@sandaramoore9660 Hi Sandra! Thank you so much for that sweet comment you left me. I really appreciate you for doing that. When your making these, be mindful of where you are sewing your face on so when you press the open end down horizontally, the face is on the opposite corner looking out and the horizontal opening becomes the tail end. I'm going to add some instructions on that to the description of the video just to clarify. 😀😍
@robinmanly7381 Hi Robin! Thank you so much! I never do chains anymore. This looks just like a dc! ( or a tr if you are from the UK, which I think you may be) I have several very good friends in the UK abd they all use the word Brilliant, not a common word to use here in the USA. Am I right or did you fool me? 🤣😍
Thank you for a good tutorial. I like the non-chain 3 method you showed. I'm going to try that when I make the chicken. It will be a fun project. Might use it for random acts of crochet kindness or back pack buddies. Take care of yourself and thanks again.
@PamelasCrochetKnitCorner1 Hello Pamela! Thank you for your sweet comment. I went over and checked out your channel, and you are amazing! I just subscribed! I love that you do plushies and garments! That cardigan is beautiful. 😍
I wish I could add a photo of the one that I made from your tutorial. It turned out so cute! Thank you for giving such a good tutorial and doing everything slowly where I could follow along. Most of the time a tutorial is too fast and I have to pause multiple times to be able to follow along. Thanks again! Take care of yourself I know that blood sugar problems can be terrible to handle. ❤
@veronica7660 Hello Veronica! Thank you for your sweet comment. They are truly adorable. I will be selling them at my market next month. Amigurumi, it is! 😍
@tiahill832 Hello, my friend! It's always so nice to see you here, Tia. These are so cute and fast and fun to make as well. I'm going to be adding some detailed instructions on the finishing process, so be sure to read that before you put the face on your chicken. Hugs. 😍
You did a super job on this tutorial, very easy to understand and follow. Cannot wait to make my chickens (yes plural as I know I will want to make more than one of these cuties).
I have 2 chickens made, waiting for order ef safety eyes to finish them. Had to frog comb and Beak on first one as I had it facing wrong way, much easier second time around. Thanks again for this tutorial❤
I just loved crocheting the granny square chicken! On mine I crocheted the granny squares, not matching but it turned out so dang cute 🥰 thank you for the tutorial ❤ I just subscribed to your channel and 👍 do you have a group in facebook? If so I would love to join ❤️
Tess Loves Yarn...is there a pattern for the darker chicken please ? I would love it...I have made 2 of the other ones that you showed crocheting them...they came out beautiful with the colors I chose...I even added a waddle on the one as a Mr. & Mrs Chicken! Thank you much appreciated if you would share the pattern for the darker chicken shown at the beginning ! I'd love to make it next...
I have no intention to make anything that resembles amigurumi. One fall I crocheted a few pumpkins and I don't want to make more vegetables. I will watch more of your tutorials, they are entertaining! Peace and Blessings! 🧶🌻🎃🐓😊
I am confused. It looks like the two granny squares are sewn together with right sides out. Then after sewing, the piece is turned inside out. And it looks like the right sides are out. My assumption would be that it should be sewn with right sides in, and then turned inside out. Is this correct?
I just love your videos making AMIGURUMI animals I hope you make more of them soon, keep well low blood sugar is no fun so take it easy and take rests when you need them, all the best Carol from Glasgow, Scotland 😊 xx
Hi Debra! Thank you so much for your sweet comment and for your understanding of my low blood sugar. It's a real bear, isn't it! Also, I'm totally tickled pink that you subbed! Hugs! 😀😍
Awe man, I didn't see the edit until after i tied it off on the last row. 😢 No wonder mine looks wonky. And I'm using scrap yarn so i might not have enough for a 3rd square. Maybe I'll just put this wonky one with a correct one and make it work.
I will say though, that your instruction was easy to follow and you showed and described everything in a way that made it easy for a beginner like me to follow along. And I learned what a treble cluster was! So thank you for that! 🧡 I'll be subbing and looking at your other tutorials for something else to make along with you. Please don't take my frustration personally. God bless you Tess!
I liked the starter double crochet explanation. That was very helpful in all ways.. I tried this tutorial 3 times. All 3 times was a flop for me. The holes are too big I downsized my hook to an E with a worsted weight. This pattern is not good for an amirgurmi at all. The holes are too big. But this video did have some good learning in it.. I cant give a like or share since it is too holy for a Sunday.
Hello Heidi. I posted my solid granny square tutorial for people who would prefer a solid square. The stuffing doesn't show through the solid squares. Here is the link: ua-cam.com/video/wn-Mgrjr9vA/v-deo.htmlsi=CcRzkNZEW29TQtAt 😍 I'm so glad you liked the starter dc. I never chain to start a dc anymore. I've been doing this for quite a while now. 😀
The project worked in this video looks good, the issue that I see in it is is that your hands get out of focus and disappear from the screen and I only hear your voice and not image to follow the pattern of your project
@linamoses3513 OMG Lina! I know, right! 🤣 That pesky fly would not leave me alone. We have two dogs, so sometimes the little pests zip right in when we are letting the dogs out or calling them back in. Summers are the worst for flies! You'll be happy to know that I caught the pesky thing and it will not be bothering me ever again. 🤣🤣🤣
@bonnieshaver6696 Hi Bonnie. I buy my safety eyes in two places. One is this shop on Etsy www.etsy.com/shop/ADHCrafted These eyes are glued to your plushie. I use Gorilla Fabric Glue but most people just use a hot glue gun. Once you glue them (very easy to do), they won't come off. I love the variety that this shop has. I also buy safety eyes on Amazon. That link is amzn.to/45qltHs This comes with the tool to close the eyes. Very useful. 😀
I've tried this pattern twice, after I bought it. I can't seem to make it triangular. A customer wants this, and I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I can't put a pic on here.
Hi Tracy. You need to push the open end of the chicken down so that the seams of the chicken form a cross. So, one seam is horizontal, and the other seam is vertical. I hope this helps. Let me know. 😀
No problem, you can find a written pattern by Sweet Softies using an African Violet granny square on Ravelry. That link is: www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/granny-square-chicken
I love this video, but i do with you could have gone longer and showed the tail. I just did my best with what you were saying. I'm more of a visual person.
You had me confused. On row 3 you said to chain 2 between the first two sets of three DCs (23:52). Moving on through that row, you said not to chain in between the DC groups. I had to frog it twice and decided not to chain. Is this correct?
@peacelovehomestead8361 I'm so sorry. I was having some low blood sugar issues. Yes, you are correct, no chains between the 3 DC groups, only chain on the corners. 😀
Hi Irene! Use a hook size that is two sizes smaller than the recommended hook size on the yarn label. There will naturally be small holes but nothing too big. These are super cute. Have fun makingvthem! 😍
@CynnekeSer You can get Sweet Softies written pattern on Etsy. I highly recommend it. Here is a link: www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/granny-square-chicken
So I had to cut out all the sewing of the squares because where you turn the bottom the opposite way was sewn shut already, not feeling kind at the moment. Make sure if you make this that you pay attention to where you either put head or tail otherwise you will have to do the same.
@sherrydurham2220 Hi Sherry! Oh my, yes. Thank you so much fir pointing that out! I'm going to edit the description to include what you just said. I really appreciate your help with that very important fact that I should have mentioned. You are awesome! Sending a big hug to you! 😀😍
@tesslovesyarn thank you I was so frustrated but honestly it wasn't a big deal to fix it. It was just late and I had been up too long lol. Thanks for sharing the pattern!

Is there a written pattern? I seriously cannot watch this 😅 or just write it out, I’ll get it
@CynnekeSer You can get Sweet Softies written pattern on Etsy. I highly recommend it. Here is a link: www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/granny-square-chicken

I don't weave in ends, I work them in as I crochet. They never come out.
Your instructions are very clear, but please stop saying “you guys”. I feel like I’m at Little League practice! 😉😄
Thanks for a great project. 👍
Oh my goodness, you cracked me up so much with your comment. I'll definitely work on that little phrase! Thank you! 😍
I pray for your health to I,prove!❤️

So I had to cut out all the sewing of the squares because where you turn the bottom the opposite way was sewn shut already, not feeling kind at the moment. Make sure if you make this that you pay attention to where you either put head or tail otherwise you will have to do the same.
@sherrydurham2220 Hi Sherry! Oh my, yes. Thank you so much fir pointing that out! I'm going to edit the description to include what you just said. I really appreciate your help with that very important fact that I should have mentioned. You are awesome! Sending a big hug to you! 😀😍
@tesslovesyarn thank you I was so frustrated but honestly it wasn't a big deal to fix it. It was just late and I had been up too long lol. Thanks for sharing the pattern!
I'm so sorry about the frustration, dear. I totally understand that as I felt the same way. Thankbyou so much for your understanding. You are so sweet! 😍
@tesslovesyarn aw well thanks for saying so and it's fine like I said it didn't take much 2 fix it at all. Thank you for sharing the pattern!
