Big Liam the Wood Pigeon bird

Say hello to Big Liam the Wood Pigeon! Liam is large, lovely, and all ready for a big pigeon squeeze. For some reason lost in the mists of time, my family has always named every woodpigeon spotted in the garden or out in the countryside as Liam. It’s just the way it is. They are all called Liam, and a flock of them are known as a flock of Liams. Hence this knitted Liam.

(I’m a bit gutted that while I was getting my design ready to launch, Oasis announced that they are reforming and now everyone is going to think that poor Big Liam the wood pigeon is named after his musical counterpart. He isn’t.)

Big Liam is 26cm from beak to tail – just the right size to cuddle in your hand.
