Height: 21 cm.

You will need: 100 g. White, 50 g. Gray and a little black; 5 needles No. 3,5; hook number 3,5; 2 buttons for the eyes, synthetic cotton for printing and a needle for embroidery.

The main pattern, knitting needles No. 3,5: front surface: faces. ranks – persons. loops; out. ranks – out. hinges .; with circular knitting, only knit faces. loops.

Knitting density: 22 p. X 30 p. = 10 x 10 cm.

Schemes: on each scheme, only one half of the part is given. 1 cell = 1 p. Details fit in a circle, so the second half is knitted symmetrically. All reductions and increases are performed according to the schemes.

Description of work

Torso and head: dial 32 p. With white thread, evenly distribute them on 4 knitting needles and knit faces. I am stitching according to the scheme. The change of rows passes along the line of the middle of the body, i.e., from the right edge of the diagram.Having finished the body, knit the head of an owl, for this in the 1st r. evenly add 7 p. = 55 p., knit 30 p. a straight cloth, then tighten the loop with a working thread.

“Cap”: fits without a pattern. Start from the edge of the neck. Dial 45 p. With gray thread and knit. stitch. On both sides close in every 2nd r. 1 time 2 p. And 2 times 1 p. = 37 p. Next, knit 4 p. direct canvas., then add on both sides in each 2nd r. 7 times for 1 p. = 51 p. After that, for the middle of the front will complement. dial 7 p. = 58 p., distribute the loops evenly on 4 knitting needles and knit 6 p. in a circle, then tighten the loops with a working thread. In conclusion, on 7 middle loops of the front part, dial 7 p. With gray thread and knit faces. smooth surface., while after 4 p. close on both sides 1 time 1 p. and after the next 2 p. 1 more time 1 p. = 3 p. Knit another 4 p. direct canvas, then on both sides add in each 2nd r. 4 times 1 p. = 11 p.

Right wing of the toy: First knit the top of the wing. Dial 5 p. With white thread and knit faces. stitch according to the scheme, adding from the left edge 8 times 1 p. in every 2 r. and from the right edge 4 times 1 p. in each 4 r. = 17 p. Temporarily leave the part and tie in the mirror image the lower part of the wing. Then fold both parts together by combining the edges with 8 increments = 34 p. And knit faces. smooth surface, adding on both sides in each 4th r. 4 more times 1 p. = 42 p. Knit 10 p. straight web, then close the loop.

On the upper part of the wing, embroider motifs with a gray thread using a “loop” seam, distributing them evenly, and embroider lines with a stalk-like seam in 2 threads, see also the diagram. Sew both halves of the wing, embroider along the seams with a stitched seam with gray thread, Perform the left wing symmetrically. (See here: Seam “loop”).

Tail: dial 36 p. With gray thread, evenly distribute them on 4 knitting needles and knit faces. stitch in a circle according to the pattern. The change of rows passes along the midline from the bottom, i.e., along the right edge of the diagram.

After 14 p. knit, as shown, shortened rows only on the loops of the lower side. After completing the scheme, close the loops.On the upper side, embroider several lines with a stitch seam with white thread, then fold the part in half along the midline and sew the stitches of the initial row.

Toy paw: fits without a pattern. Dial 16 p. With gray thread, evenly distribute them on 4 knitting needles and knit 8 p. persons. stitch.Then 8 p. For the upper side to close, and on the remaining 8 p. For the lower side, knit another 6 p. and then close the loop. Tie a chain from the 20th century with black thread p. and tie them 1 p. Art. b / n (claws).
Fold the part in half, sew the stitches of the initial row, laying between them in the form of claws three stitches of the black chain.

Assembly: fill the head and body with cotton, pull the initial row of the body with thread.
Put the “Cap” on the head of the owl, put a little cotton under it and sew along the contour. On the head with a white thread, embroider a “loop” seam, see photo. Embroider the beak with a double-sided smooth surface with black thread. Sew on the eyes, embroider the lines at the eyes with a stitched seam in gray and black threads, see photo.
