This PDF pattern has detailed instructions to help you make your own crochet heron.
I have always had a bit of a thing for herons, one of my favourite islands in Australia is called Heron Island, and I think they are such cool birds! So when I was asked to design a pattern with one of Aesop’s fables as inspiration, I chose ‘The Heron’, which is one of the less known fables. Have you heard about it before?
