Just before my elder sister's birthday she moved out of home, and so as a present she wanted a crocheted animal to have in her new room. I didn't really like many of the owl patterns available and I wanted it to look unique so I made my own.
This owl is incredibly cuddly and because of its cylindrical shape it can stand up on its own easily.
If you notice any mistakes in the pattern please contact me at littleredfoxyarns@gmail.com
This pattern is free for you to make items for yourself, friends and the general population. If you make these to sell I simply ask that you refer people back to my site.
