Notes: 

• #sc, eg. (2sc, 3sc, etc) shows the number of scs to be completed in the indicated st
• Sts listed between brackets are all worked in the same st, eg. (hdc, dc)
• I highly recommend using a stitch marker to help keep track of the rounds for the body/head

Recommended Sequence for the No Sew Jelly Bean Baby Chick Free Crochet Pattern: 

 It is highly recommended to complete the No Sew Jelly Bean Baby Chick pattern in the order the pattern is written.

Start your Jelly Bean Baby Chick Crochet Pattern:

Main Colour – Yellow (Lemon Curd) (20 yards)

Accent Colours – Orange (Pumpkin) (small amount)

Baby Chick Wings (make 2): The wings are worked in 1 Row with the 2 ends used to tie the wings in place after they are crocheted on.

Using Main Colour, leave a 6 inch starting tail, ch 3

Mark the starting chain with a stitch marker to help with crocheting the wing on. End off, leaving a 6 inch tail.

Round 8: Adding Wings: Place the animal down on a hard surface with the body face ‘up’ and the feet facing you.  Locate the 7 centre front sts and mark them with a stitch marker (the wings will be placed on either side of these sts). Locate the far right marked st.  Count over 1 st to the right of it, if this is not the next unworked st of the body, crochet over to this stitch. (If left handed you will locate the left st and count over 1 st to the left).   Place the first wing in front of the body to the right of the marked sts (left if you’re left handed).  Working through both pieces (beginning with the marked starting chain of the wing and the next unworked st on the body), sc.  Working through the body only, scdec, sc in the next 3 sts, scdec, (these are your marked sts).  Place the second wing in front of your work (body). Working through both pieces, sc in the next st, working through the body only, sc in the next 2 sts, scdec, sc in the next 2 sts (12).   After completing the round, pull the tails into the body on either side of the stitch used to attach the wings.  Tie the tails together on the inside of the body.

Baby Chick Beak:   Using Orange, insert  your needle horizontally 1 round down from eyes under 3 sts.  (Note – to make it centred you may need to insert needle in the middle of the sts as shown).  Repeat 4-5 times though the same set of holes.  Tie off and weave in ends.  Follow video for embroidering the beak.    Video:
