Owl – Crochet Makes
This was a really easy pattern to make and you can vary the
size and colours of yarn used. As with most toy based products if you are going to make
them for children you have to make them safe and follow certain criteria.
I was quite interested in the amigurami patterns that I have been seeing and decided to try my hand at it using a thicker wool to get a quicker result, and Ollie was born... the glitzy owl. My owl is made from two toned chunky wool and I decided to
put beading the beak and around the eyes.
The bead give his beak and his eyes a bit more sparkle. This is such an easy pattern that you can finish in a couple of hours, the thing that took the time was adding the beads. I am looking forward to improving on Ollie when I make the rest of his family!
Owls have always been associated with wisdom and knowledge, it is interesting how two simple pieces of equipment (the wool and the crochet needle) can go on to produce some lovely pieces and I will be sharing more as the weeks pass.
