Cock-a-doodle-doo! 🇫🇷🐓

Other than the whimsical weather, I was surprised to learn that the Olympic committee had apparently decided to use the Phrygian cap as its mascot.

I thought I’d honour Gallus gallus domesticus my own way, here’s the end result.

Originally, the sewing pattern was designed to make a phoenix but I think it’s just as suitable to make a rooster or a chick plush

When we think of the Olympic Games, it’s hard not to think of the Olympic flame, hence its recurring appearance with this stuffed toy
