DK – Owl Hat

DK – Owl Hat

I was asked to design a Owl hat, I decided to write a knitting pattern while I was knitting and designing the hat.   I imagined it to have BIG round yellow eyes and ears.  Then when I researched owls I found out its one or the other but not bother together!!

So I made bigg’ish eyes

I used black buttons for the centre of the eyes.

I noticed that owls with ears also have feathers like eyebrows above their eyes

I wanted the beck to stand out, so I designed a beck that would be stuffed

The ears are at the side of their heads and go out to the side, rather than straight up
