Fair Isle Owl

Knitting Pattern PDF

All parts are knitted flat and sewn up at the end.

The jumper is made with two simple square pieces. The wings are sewn over the jumper so that the jumper is not removable.

The project requires small amounts of yarn, no more than 10g each. To achieve a fluffy look, I incorporated textured Bouclé yarn to work half of the Owl’s body and his wings. You can use any chunky yarn or fleecy yarn instead. Feel free to use your stash referring to the yarn information.
