Book Description

Crochet your favourite characters from Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget, the hit Aardman Animations 'chick flick' with over 43 million views on Netflix!

Eleven cheeky amigurumi projects for every fan of Chicken Run.

Having pulled off a death-defying escape from Tweedy's farm, Ginger has finally found her dream a peaceful island sanctuary for the whole flock, far from the dangers of the human world; Ginger's happy ending seems complete. But back on the mainland the whole of chicken-kind faces a new and terrible threat. For Ginger and her team even if it means putting their own hard-won freedom at risk this time, they're breaking in.

In this crafty companion title to the highly-anticipated sequel to Chicken Run Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget, released on Netflix Sarah-Jane Hicks skilfully demonstrates how to form the fabulous flock, including returning characters Ginger, Rocky, Babs, Bunty and the popular rats, Nick and Fetcher.

There are 11 makes in all, and detailed instructions and techniques for creating each one. The characters range from between 10.5 and 24cm (4½ and 9½in) tall, great for little hands to hold, or perfect to prop up on a bookshelf! 

Don't be chicken: be more Babs, and whip up a storm with your yarns!
