Knit a ‘Seagull’ and Unravel the Gull Myth

Posted by Danielle | Aug 10, 2024 | Amigurumi & Kawaii, Featured, Knit Hacks | 0 |

I’m a bird nerd and I’m about to drop some facts … did you know that there’s no such thing as a seagull? It’s true! The birds we casually call seagulls (I do it all the time!) are actually just gulls, and they’re a diverse group. With over 50 species worldwide, gulls range from the tiny Little Gull to the imposing Great Black-backed Gull, and many don’t even live near the sea!

So with that in mind, have fun with your colors, stripes and variations of Clare Gunson’s awesome amigurumi pattern:

Get the pattern via Etsy or buy one already made, designed by Clare Gunson of Sardines For Tea.
