A wish for the world....
for peace, laughter & humility.
And a wish for you all also....
I wish that you will find joy in the daily tasks that you undertake,
I wish that you will find magic in the simple pleasures of the world,
I wish that you find complete contentment in the nurturing of your children,
And I wish that your home is filled with light & laughter.
A very simple Christmas treat for you....
Cast on 16 stiches
Knit a square
Cast off
Fold in halfStitch sides together leaving room to loosely stuff with wool.
Stitch sides closed.
Pull top to base with a simple stitch.
Use wool to create a simple comb, beak, feet ~ mine are all different.Attach several wool strands to fan from the bottom to create a tail for a rooster.

Make as many as you like.
(Note: this is my adaptation of a traditional pattern used by Steiner kindergartens.
To stick with Steiner philosophy the wool is locally grown organic & plant dyed. However. We do what we can & I would say that recycled wool from other projects is equally as good to use).
Merry Christmas Wonderful Friends
A very Merry Christmas to you indeed.
