Have you met Enid my crochet flamingo?

Enid is my latest finished crocheted project.

She is a very fine Flamingo indeed, her only fault is that she tends to be a little vain.

How Enid came to be: 

I started with her feet

added an ankle or two…

next came a knee and a thigh…

Gradually two very skinny legs emerged…

and a body with a head…isn’t she pretty?

Put all those pieces together and you have a flamingo … but hang on…something is missing!

Enid where are your feathers?

Oh poor Enid, I’ll hook you up some asap…

Do you know she sat in the conservatory, in her little green chair and waited patiently for a day and a night.

Until one day…taaaaaaaaaaaa dah!!…(there is no other sound for it!)

She had her feathers at last!

Enid was last seen relaxing in the garden, preening her pretty pink feathers.

Do you like my newly hooked friendly flamingo…? 

If so, maybe you could give her a go too.

She came from this amazing book, 

Crochet wild Animals by Vanessa Mooncie.

 The patterns are easy to follow and such fun to make

I recommend it for intermediate crocheters and all amigurumi fans
