Magpie Chart

If you would like to have a go at the Magpie Wrist-ees from my recent swap package you will need the original Robin pattern by Tiny Owl Knits.
The chart here is the one that I made up for the knit, with the eye made from a french knot and the beak from a few satin stitches. At the last moment I added a couple of lines of stitching to outline the bird, but you could leave those out. I stuck to the original pattern for the nest, just adding some brown flecks to the eggs and  then stitching on an assortment of odd beads, ribbons, small buttons etc for the nest.
