What to do with all the left over red yarn I have from crocheting the Santa wine bottle covers?? Oh! I know! Angry bird koozie! So here's what you need:
a crochet hook, I used G
Some ready yarn
Orange, black and white felt
A needle and thread to affix the felt
A can of pop or cup for measurements
I started with the magic circle and double crocheted until my ring was the size of a pop can bottom. Then double crochet one row in the opposite loop so the koozie begins to turn upward. Continue to double crochet until you reach the top of your can. To make the feathers at the top of his head: on the last row, chain 5 and single crochet back continue on. I made 3 feathers, but I think he only has two. Oh well! Once you have the koozie crocheted, cut out your shapes for the face from the felt. I used sticky backed felt , but it doesn't stick so well so you will need to stitch it on. I'm not that artistic so my angry bird face isn't the best, but I still think it turned out ok.
