Simple squares knitted in warm tones of yarn are used to create this winsome little bird
KNITTED IN BASIC stitches to form simple square shapes, this stout little owl sums up the comfort of autumn.
Yarn in seasonal hues of russet and brown is used for his body and unpolished buttons for his hypnotic eyes, giving the characterful bird a rustic appeal.
His feet are made of crocheted loops, so he can perch on a shelf adding a cheery face among the books.
