This pattern was made using Big Twist Posh yarn. I know, Joann went out
of business and no one can get this anymore :( You could use any size 5
plush yarn, like Premier Basic or Parfait Chunky, Hobbi’s Hunny Bunny,
etc., or to make a larger chicken jockey, Bernat Blanket yarn will work, too.
Just be sure to adjust your hook sizes accordingly.
