This fun and cheery birdhouse is sure to brighten your day. It can be hung on a door knob or hook, or out on a tree branch to make all the other birdlife jealous of such a colourful home!

This pattern uses UK terminology throughout.
The pattern is made in three parts: first the granny square base, then the granny triangle ‘roof’, and finally the shell stich trim along the roof line. The pattern is worked with the right side facing you throughout.
