Fancy Hen makes a cheerful addition to the home. The colorwork design is inspired by patterned ceramic tiles and the flower motif is similar to traditional fairisle designs. You can use Fancy Hen as a cushion or soft toy; or add weights and use as a doorstop or bookend. In this class you will learn stranded colorwork, Kitchener stitch, mattress stitch and closed cast on.
