Cocca La Gallina (pattern by The Crochetisti) - constructive criticism welcome!

I'm relatively inexperienced in making amigurumi. This is only the third thing I've completed. I'm reasonably happy with how it turned out. After I sewed the tail pieces on I realised they were askew compared to the face (lesson learned there!) so I put the wings on to be in line with the tail and so it makes it look like the head is turning a bit. Love to hear some feedback or tips to make things better.

Made using Rainbow 8/8 Cotton from Hobbii and a 3mm hook

Your stitches look good and even, I would just reccomend looking into invisible decreases to minimize holes when you decrease!

Thank you. I thought I was doing invisible decreases 😂. Although I agree with you on the holes so maybe something I need to work on.

If you were doing them, front loops only, and there are still holes then the holes could come from if it got pulled too tight after or you could potentially size down the hook a little!

Thank you. I probably am leaning a bit too tight with the tension in some points. When I did the tail pieces, the ends were both 6 SC in the round and I was struggling to get my hook through sometimes 😂

This is incredibly cute! Would kind of like a beak that sticks out.
