Assembly time! 😊
Step 1: Using tapestry needle attach eyes to the body. Eyes to be attached a few rows below the top and 2-3 stitches apart:
Step 2: In this step we will be inserting safety eyes. Insert safety eyes in the middle of white eyes:
Step 3: Nose. Get tapestry needle with orange yarn and embroider nose in triangle shape:
Step 4: After eyes complete we can use some filling to stuff our owl. When stuffed, slip stitch entire top to close it off:
Step 5: Now we will make some ears. Cut 10 strands of yarn about 20 centimetres long. 5 strands for each side. I wrapped yarn around my book to make it easier.
Take your first strand, fold it in half and slip stitch it through a top corner. Make 5 strands on each side:
Step 6: Finally, attach keychain to the top of crochet owl head and we are done 🧡💛💚
