Crochet Thanksgiving Turkey Unicorn

Bring some magic to the holiday with this crochet Thanksgiving Turkey Unicorn!  This design is based on my original heart-shaped Unicorn, which I published previously. Now unicorn is getting ready for Thanksgiving and I transformed it into a Turkey Unicorn.

This crochet Turkey Unicorn has turkey feathers and snood, which he borrowed from my crochet Turkey applique. I also embellished my Turkey Unicorn with Fall-themed decorative buttons to add to its seasonal character.

This crochet Turkey Unicorn applique is very cute! If you love Unicorns, Turkey Unicorn will be a wonderful addition to 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 designs.
