Eurasian Blue Tit Amigurumi Pattern

This Eurasian Blue Tit amigurumi is a great project for intermediate as well as seasoned crocheters! You don’t necessarily have to use it to make a blue tit. You can let your creativity flow and make any any bird you like. There’s also a video tutorial on my YouTube channel, in case you need visual guidance.

This pattern is written in US crochet terms. You can convert it to British terms using my conversion chart.
