Free Crochet Bird Nest Pattern

Crochet Bird Nest Pattern by Crochet For You.

There are a lot of birds in our garden. Some birds come into our house to see a place to build their nests. I thought myself why I can’t crochet a sweet home, sweet nest for them using my skill? And it will decorate our garden too. What a great idea I had. So I did it last. I like to know, what you think about this pattern.

Skill Level: 
I think this is easy to crochet. Don’t think about skill level. Try it yourself.

Materials (I used):
Nylon String 50g (7 WPI), 3.25 mm crochet hook.

Finished size:
Nest = 7.5 inch long (Without tail)

Abbreviations:
ch = chain
dc = double crochet
hdc = half double crochet
sl st = slip stitch
sc = single crochet
beg = begining
2tog = crochet 2 stitches  together (decrease)
st = stitch
* = repeat stitches from * to*.

About the pattern:
Working in the round until round 6. After crocheting first round 6, next 5 is crocheted in rows to make a hole. If you do not like to crochet in back loop and front loop, you can crochet those rows in the normal way too.
