These chicks were originally from the Organic Cotton kids Collection but have been re-worked in Rowan Cotton Glace and Baby Merino Silk DK (wool and silk). This design has a small fairisle heart panel and is knitted mostly in stocking stitch. The pattern has been made available by Rowan as a free download for Valentines Day.

This is a FREE pattern available to members of the KnitRowan website.
