MADE WITH HOMBYS
American Bald Eagle Plush by @kirstenscozycorner
A white head, warm brown body, golden beak and feet, and red-white-blue wing accents give this chunky bald eagle its striking character. Creator @kirstenscozycorner shared the finished piece with a few concrete project details.
The broad white neck ruff frames large round eyes, while the compact body and oversized feet make the eagle’s silhouette easy to recognize. Its patriotic wing accents add contrast to the main brown-and-white palette.

Planning Your Yarn Amount
The 14 × 12 inch dimensions are confirmed, but dimensions alone do not establish yardage for a shaped plush. No skein counts or weight specification are provided. Check the pattern or maker for stitch gauge, filling, weighted-bottom construction, and the amount of each shade. The product packs are shopping options rather than a complete eagle kit.

YARN PLANNING · REFERENCE ESTIMATE
How much yarn should I prepare?
Quantity status: needs the original pattern.
Shaped, stuffed, wrapped or multi-piece construction cannot be reliably converted from flat area. The original pattern must confirm dimensions, stitch density, piece count and yarn needed in each shade.
| Yarn / color group | Whole-skein planning budget |
|---|---|
| Dark Coffee | Pattern-specific quantity required |
| Pure White | Pattern-specific quantity required |
| Buttercup | Pattern-specific quantity required |
| red | Pattern-specific quantity required |
| Navy Blue | Pattern-specific quantity required |
Use the original pattern’s yarn weight or yardage for each color, then divide by the yarn length / weight on the product label and round up. Do not assume an 8-skein pack will make every item in a group photo.
Before buying: swatch in the intended stitch, measure the finished swatch and yarn used, then scale to your chosen size. The reference size above is an assumption unless marked maker-reported. These figures do not establish the original finished size or actual yarn used.
