Fancy Hen is knit from the bottom up. Her comb sections and beak are knit separately and sewn on. With the addition of a few large pebbles at the base, Fancy Hen could make an ideal doorstop or bookend. Otherwise keep her soft for use as a cushion or toy.
Fancy Hen loves to strut about the smallholding with an endearing mix of trepidation and pomp.
