Peryton Plushies

BLOG ETSY TUMBLR FACEBOOK

This was part of my monthly crafting challenge from my blog The plan was to give away the free pattern for one month only for people who signed up for email updates, then you can earn patterns during other months by making the patterns and sending the photos my way ^-^
Now that the free promotion is over, you can buy the .pdf pattern on my Etsy instead.

For November I did a Peryton I knew from the get-go that I wanted to do some kind of mythical stag for this collection, but it felt to plain to be a legendary creature, you know? That was until my awesome fans suggested a Peryton ♥ I hadn't heard of it before, but it's another hybrid creature of a bird and deer. Some versions have bird hindquarters, but I stuck with the deer body all throughout. For that extra bird touch, there are feathered wings, ears, and a little feathery tail. They're made from minky and measure 5” wide, 9" tall, and 10” long
