Sparky the Budgie parakeet
Who's a pretty boy then? Meet Sparky and Coco, the adorable knitted budgies that are sure to brighten up your crafting days! Sparky is a vibrant blue, while Coco boasts a stunning green hue. Standing at a delightful 23cm tall, these friendly knitted budgies can be brought to life using my comprehensive 8-page PDF knitting pattern!
These charming budgies are knitted flat on 4mm needles, making them a fantastic project for knitters of all skill levels. Your knitting pattern includes detailed step-by-step instructions along with colour photos to guide you through the process. To enhance your crafting experience, I've also included a unique tutorial on how to make wire legs, an invaluable technique not just for these budgies, but also for any knitted birds you may wish to create in the future!
For the best results, I recommend using Stylecraft Special DK yarn to create these feathery friends. All the yarn shades you need are conveniently listed in the pattern, but feel free to utilize any DK yarn you have in your stash to give your budgies a personal touch. In addition to the yarn, you will require some supplies: 2 ply black yarn for detailing, craft wire to create their sturdy legs, 2 x 4mm black beads for eyes, and a pipe cleaner for extra support.
Whether you're a seasoned knitter or just starting out, this budgie pattern is a rewarding project that promises to deliver some fun and creativity into your knitting routine. Don’t miss out on the chance to make your very own beautiful knitted Sparky and Coco budgies—download the pattern today and let your crafting journey take flight!
