What shall I name him?
Kevin, Keith, Karl...
My summer top is finished.
Basically a tank top, with slash neck, with mesh top (to bust) and then standard DC with added rib around the bottom. Made up pattern, try on as you go, winging it 😁

My vote is for Kevin, he’s very cute. A kingfisher with attitude. @Auti loved the bee card and @Coxy11 You are very talented. The toppper looks great.

Just realised that the pattern for "Kevin" can be turned into pretty much any other bird, just by changing the yarn colours.
I can feel a seagull coming on.
Seagull, easy. White head/body. Grey wings. Orange beak/feet.
