So well written

This was a joy to make. I sell at craft fairs, and this one still taught me something. It actually looks like the photo, which is rare for me. Made two: one for myself, honestly and one that is NOT leaving my house.

Cutest Canadian Goose ever

Bought it at 11pm, finished by 2am, no regrets. Made it for my niece and they have not put it down since. Way better written than the free version I tried first. My new go-to gift.

Solid beginner pattern

Great pattern, not quite perfect. Made it for my grandson and they have not put it down since. Wish it came with a two-color variation, but easy to improvise. Would still buy again.

Happy with it

Good value, a few notes. I'm newly retired and finally have time and this was perfect for me. Added a keychain loop to the top, now it lives on my bag. This one's for my best friend. Already planning the next one. Took me longer than I expected, but that's probably on me.

Best Canadian Goose pattern

Okay WOW. I run a crochet club at my school so I was nervous, but it went fine. I liked that the color changes for the black neck are spelled out instead of just 'switch colors here'. I've bought Canadian Goose patterns from three other shops and this is the only one I finished.

Cute but fiddly

Decent, but I expected a bit more. I liked that the color changes for the long body are spelled out instead of just 'switch colors here'. Gave it to my son's nursery. I've been asked for four more. The photos are good but there aren't enough of them for the wings.

Cutest Canadian Goose ever

This was a joy to make. This was my very first amigurumi and this was perfect for me. Every round has a stitch count. That alone makes this better than half the patterns I've paid for. Great TV-watching project.

Great pattern

Bought it at 11pm, finished by 2am, no regrets. I run a crochet club at my school so I was nervous, but it went fine. Perfect weekend project when you don't want to think too hard. I liked that the color changes for the black neck are spelled out instead of just 'switch colors here'. Made it for my husband (he loves them) and they have not put it down since. Made it in a long car ride with Hobby Lobby I Love This Yarn.

Quick and satisfying

Okay WOW. My husband (he loves them) squealed. Mission accomplished. The shaping on the wings is clever. Didn't expect that from a 'beginner' pattern. My new go-to gift.

Easy to follow

Yes. Just yes. Went up to bulky yarn and now it's a full-on pillow. I've bought Canadian Goose patterns from three other shops and this is the only one I finished. Buying the whole set next.

This pattern made me feel like I actually know what I'm doing. The instructions are written round by round with stitch counts at the end of every row, so I always knew if I'd messed up. Thanks for a great pattern!

Good pattern

Cute result, took a little fiddling. I crochet a few evenings a week and this was perfect for me. The photos for the assembly step are what sold me. No guessing where the chin strap goes. Crocheting this was honestly relaxing. My one gripe is the chin strap took a few tries to get symmetrical.

B
Barbara Clark
My new favorite

I rarely leave reviews but this earned one. I crochet between classes, and this one still taught me something. I made it in Red Heart Super Saver and the long body still came out crisp. Big readable font, nothing crammed, and the stitch counts actually add up (I checked every single one).

S
Saoirse Bailey
Okay for the price

Mixed feelings. Every round has a stitch count. That alone makes this better than half the patterns I've paid for. The stitch count on one round of the long body didn't match for me (could be my error).

B
Barbara M.
Good value

Liked it a lot. Gave it to our foster kiddo. I've been asked for four more. There's a picture for every tricky part, including how to attach the long body. The first round of the chin strap was a bit confusing until I reread it.

P
Phyllis S.
Great, minor notes

Cute result, took a little fiddling. Crochet is my anxiety outlet, and this one still taught me something. Used velvet yarn (not recommended for beginners!) and it came out roughly 8 inches. This one's for myself, honestly. Already planning the next one. I'd love a yardage estimate per color, not just total.

Highly recommend

Easiest pattern I've bought in a long time. I'm left-handed and usually struggle with patterns and I had no trouble at all. Customers at my booth keep asking which one is the Canadian Goose. Made two: one for a coworker's baby shower and one that is NOT leaving my house. Already eyeing the other animals.

Very cute, minor hiccup. Customers at my booth keep asking which one is the Canadian Goose. Took me longer than I expected, but that's probably on me.

Great pattern

Worth every penny. Used some hand-dyed merino I'd been saving and it came out small enough for a keychain. It was for my husband (he loves them) and it was the hit of the party. Zero complaints.

N
Nancy
Nice pattern

Great pattern, not quite perfect. This was my very first amigurumi and I had no trouble at all. The pattern tells you exactly how far apart to put the safety eyes, which is the step I always ruin. I swapped the colors to match my team and it still worked perfectly. Pages printed a little small on my printer. Zoomed in on my tablet instead.

R
Riley Morris
Easy and cute

Finished my Canadian Goose last night! I now own six of their patterns. Zero duds. Made two: one for my husband (he loves them) and one that is NOT leaving my house. If you're on the fence, buy it.

Trudy
Solid beginner pattern

Great pattern, not quite perfect. I've been crocheting for 30+ years so I was nervous, but it went fine. This got me out of a crochet slump. I checked and the shop allows selling finished items, which is why I bought it. A left-handed note would've been nice, but I figured it out.

Best Canadian Goose pattern

Could not be happier with this. I made it in Red Heart Super Saver and the wings still came out crisp. The pattern tells you exactly how far apart to put the safety eyes, which is the step I always ruin. Second pattern I've bought from Willis and both were great. It's the first thing I've finished in months and that feels good.

Hands down the best Canadian Goose pattern out there. This was my very first amigurumi and I had no trouble at all. It went to a church bazaar and now the whole family wants one. It's the first thing I've finished in months and that feels good. Can't wait for more from this shop.

Good pattern

Good pattern, would recommend with a caveat. I've been crocheting for 30+ years and this was perfect for me. Finished in 3 episodes of my show. The chin strap is my favorite part. I'd forgotten how fun amigurumi is. Way better written than the free version I tried first. Gave it to a teacher appreciation gift. I've been asked for four more. I'd love a yardage estimate per color, not just total. Still recommend.

Great pattern

Cutest thing I've ever made. Compared to the ones on Etsy this was cheaper and clearer. Finished in a rainy afternoon. The chin strap is my favorite part. I liked that the color changes for the chin strap are spelled out instead of just 'switch colors here'. Made it for my twin nephews and they have not put it down since. Perfect gift pattern.
