All My Chickens, Week 28, Barnyard Birds

A sweet little knit, Barnyard Birds is perfect for a beginner, because all you do is knit up a square (or use up your gauge swatches, if you've got any).

In fact, I'm thinking you could do these from a square of fabric, if you're not into knitting. I might have to try that. (Obviously, I decided fabric was the way to go here. Principle is the same - start with a square, then stitch up just as directed for the knit variety.)
