Owl Collection is an original crochet pattern by June Gilbank.

Owl Collection is a clever low-sew design: the head, body, legs and wings are all crocheted as one piece, giving you an elegant bird silhouette with the perfect owl posture and an effortlessly smooth result! 

Yarn: worsted weight yarn

Hook: E US/3.5mm crochet hook

Additional info:

• This pattern includes endless options: by varying the colours, the direction the head is looking, and the facial embellishments, you can make your own customised owls.
• This is a detailed 11-page pattern. In addition to the written crochet pattern instructions, it includes 45 step-by-step photos for the special crochet and construction methods.
• If you’d like to print it out, you can save paper and ink by printing just the written crochet instructions (without the photos, notes or assembly instructions), which are included as a bonus 4 page text-only Appendix to the patten. (If you do this, please refer to the full pattern on-screen if/when you need to look at the photos.)

Size: approx 6” (15cm) tall when worked in worsted weight yarn. 

Eye Size: 12mm (Although I used black eyes for my sample owls, you can also use orange or yellow ‘safety’ eyes with black pupils to give yours an unblinking owlish stare)
