Margherita the Greater Flamingo

Margherita the flamingo is the latest design to strut into Kerry Lord's flock of crochet bird designs! Flamingos gain their distinctive pink plumage from their natural diet of shrimp and algae, which contain pigments called carotenoids. This is perfectly represented with TOFT's soft shades of Pink and Coral DK.
