The most important thing in advance:
This crochet pattern for the majestic bald eagle Anila is worked in continuous spi-
ral rounds without crocheting a chain stitch at the beginning and a slip stitch at the
end of the round. The number in the curly brackets { } indicates how many stitches
should be crocheted at the end of the round.
I hope you will have a lot of fun with my crochet pattern and get a beautiful examp-
le like mine.
