Free Chicken Nugget Crochet Pattern
Happy New Year everyone! It’s crazy to think that were in 2024 already. Well with a New Year comes a sense of new and growth and change. Well the big change that I’m going to make this year is to be more active online and try to fill out the pages of this blog with crochet patterns, info and tips, tips on markets and just anything else that I feel like talking about to be honest with you….. I have been known to ramble more often then not haha
Todays post is, drum roll please…… my free chicken nugget crochet pattern!!! Woohoo!!! These are a favourite of mine, they work up suuuuuper quick, use very little material and are always a fan favourite. Everyone gets a kick out of a crochet chicken nugget, especially when so many kiddos love them so much!
Not ready to crochet right now? Pin this image and crochet later!
These chicken nuggets look great inside of a fry container which helps to complete the whole package. I have had luck finding these at various places from dollar stores, to amazon, to everyones favourite burger place hahaha I have even seen other creators make them themselves on their Cricut machines using cardstock and a bit of glue.

At this point if you are using Safety Eyes I want you to place them now, if not you can go ahead and stuff the Nugget. Once your Nugget is stuffed we are going to fold it in half and weave the tail through stitches on both sides closing the bottom of your Chicken Nugget! If your using Felt Eyes now is the time to glue them on!
We are now all finished with our Chicken Nugget!
