I was talking with one of my testers about a conversation with her crochet recipient. This cutie said that the little duckling I designed needed a big duck, so here we are a fun bigger duck for summer fun!

This lovely crochet duck is the perfect size and almost life-sized! She is the perfect size for play. This crochet duck is the perfect size for decoration for wherever you’d like her! This crochet duck is a quick and easy make for you to enjoy and love! You will certainly want to get your hands on this lovely pattern!
