Bring some magic to the holiday with this crochet Thanksgiving decoration – Turkey Unicorn! This is my crochet heart-shaped Unicorn, which I designed previously, getting ready for Thanksgiving and transformed into a Turkey Unicorn.

This crochet Turkey Unicorn has turkey feathers and snood, which he borrowed from my crochet Turkey applique. I embellished this Turkey Unicorn with Fall buttons to add to its seasonal character.
This crochet Turkey Unicorn applique is very cute and if you love Unicorns, it will be wonderful for your holiday decoration. You can embellish pillows or blankets with this applique, add it to your table decor or even frame it!
As the face of this Unicorn applique is in the shape of a heart, it continues the series of my heart shaped creations. It also becomes another member of my Unicorn appliques.
