I dont design and write crochetpatterns only, but books and audio books too (in German; I hopetheyll be translated and published in English someday). In my private life I live in a crazyHippie community. That means Im friendly tolerated by 2 cats asfar as I pay the rent for the apartment, open the cans and do thecomplete housework. Materials:

• Crochet yarn (Original Catania bySMC/Schachenmayr) in the colors yellow/light green, white/lightblue, white/dark turquoise and rose
• Crochet hook size 12
• Black stranded cotton
• 1 pair of safety eyes in black; diameter8 millimeters/0,32 inches
• Stuff cotton
• Wool needle
• Scissors

Abridgements: St = stitch dc = double crochet sc = single crochet Inc = increase 1 stitch (2 dc in 1stitch) Ch = chain stitch Dec = decrease 1 stitch (2 dctogether) Htr = half treble crochet Tr = treble crochet Dtr = double treble crochet Rd = round MR = Magic Ring 6x = do it 6 times Head/Body Start in yellow or white Rd 1: Make an MR and 6 dc in the center.Close the ring by pulling the yarn (6) Rd 2: inc 1 stitch in every dc(12) Rd 3: 6x (1 dc, 1 inc) (18) Rd 4: 6x (2 dc, 1 inc) (24) Rd 5-10: 24 dc (24) Change the color into light green, lightblue or dark turquoise.

Rd 11-13: 24 dc (24) Fix the safety eyes between Rd 6 and 7,and the beak, black lines and spots will be embroidered now.

I embroidered the beak directly under the round in that I fixedthe safety eyes that means round 8. Its important for keepingthe face symmetrically. Leave space about 1 dc between beak andeyes and embroider as many lines as you need for creating a smallarch (the hooked beak). Finally, the yellow-head-budgie gets 2lines in light-blue over the beak (the male one), and thewhite-head-budgie gets 2 lines in rose (the female one).Put the yarn inside of the head after finishing and make someknots to fix it.Then you take the black stranded cotton and embroider 2 diagonallines under the eye. After that you make the 2 black spots, changethe side and repeat this step.I made 2 black spots (= double knots) per side and fixed theyarn inside of the head. Rd 14-20: 24 dc (24) Now, the budgie will be filled withstuff cotton.

Take more stuff cotton step by step in the nextfollowing rounds. Rd 21: 6x (2 dc, 1 dec) (18) Rd 22: 6x (1 dc, 1 dec) (12) Rd 23: 6x 1 dec (6) 1 sc, yarn off close the gap by sewingand weave in. Now you embroider the feet with roseyarn. You do it the same way as you embroidered the beakbefore. Leave a long piece of yarn so that youcan weave in after finishing.
