This pattern is available for $3.50.

Please note this is NOT a complete pattern: this is an EXPANSION PACK for my Owl Collection pattern. It includes all the modifications required to crochet a Barn Owl with realistic face shape and markings, either facing forward or looking to the right or left.

Note: This pattern was updated in Aug 2024 to include the turned-head option - you can re-download the PDF from your PlanetJune account if you bought the older version that didn’t include this option!

Size: approx 6” (15cm) tall

Yarn: worsted weight yarn in a suitable colour (e.g. buff, tan, light brown, muted orange) and white.

Hook: E US/3.5mm crochet hook

Additional info: This pattern includes appendices for both right- and left-handers that clearly explain the special technique for crocheting the head so the face structure is built right in, and gives optional instructions that let you choose the direction you want your owl to look.

Aside from the colouring and facial features, the Barn Owl has all the same features as the Owl Collection - the smooth, seamless head, body, wings and legs, giving you the perfect elegant owl posture with minimal assembly.

You can buy the Owl Collection pattern together with this expansion pack at a reduced price here.

Or if you already have the Owl Collection pattern, the pattern link on this page will let you buy just the Barn Owl Expansion Pack.

What is an Expansion Pack?

  • An Expansion Pack is an add-on to an existing PlanetJune pattern.
  • The Expansion Pack lets you modify or add to the original pattern to create something else.
  • You cannot use the Expansion Pack alone - you must also purchase the original pattern in order to be able to complete the pictured items in the Expansion Pack pattern.
