Stuff fully, add in a magnet before stuffing closed so that your pigeon can attach to anything metal!

To make your Pigeon “pooping“ use a long strand of white yarn with knots on both ends pulled through the Birbs body, through the head, and hidden under the fake head. Pull the end coming from the butt to make him poop!

To make your pigeon extra loooong simply repeat Rnds 6 – 10 seven more times, making 12 rounds of ‘sc in each st (15)’ total.

This should make your pigeon long enough to fit a party hat under it!

Add a stripe around by wrapping around with the same color as the ball, and then sewing it on in various locations up the hat. See video for additional details.

To make your party hat even bigger. Repeat Rnds 5 and 6, making one additional sc in Rnd 6 between increases to make it slowly increase in size.
