3 wise owls, all sitting in a row, so cute and a great addition to your home.
The pattern is easy/intermediate and superchunky/superbulky yarn makes for an up-to-date and super-quick knit. A very simple cable pattern forms the owls, great for first timers to cabling, and great fun to knit. Knitted on 2 needles and sewn up the sides. Line by line instructions with British/American terms throughout.
This is an envelope cushion cover with buttons and buttonholes to enable easy insertion of the cushion.
Why not make some for yourself or for presents for those special others?

The Lonely Sea - Heather Corcoran
I have a bag that say ' I knit therefore I am' - sums me up perfectly! I love to knit and love to design! I have knitted for years, and made and sold literally hundreds of owl gloves and fingerless mitts on-line. About 8 years ago, I decided to give designing and writing patterns a go, and I absolutely love it! The whole process is absolutely captivating, and I love to see other knitters' projects made from my patterns. My beautiful cavvy, Honey, is my constant companion, and she sleeps next to me on the settee while I knit. You can also find me on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/thelonelyseapatterns/
