A classic beanie, with a snug fit and a cute owl on the side. Knitted in a soft chunky yarn, it will keep your little one lovely and warm in cold weather.
It is an intermediate pattern, as you will need to know cast/bind on, knit, purl, and knit or purl 2 together, and simple cabling. (Even if it’s your first time cabling, you will be able to, it’s that easy!) Designed so the owl is on the side. Knitted FLAT on 2 needles and sewn up the back. Instructions are written line by line and are in English, with British/American terms. Most chunky yarns should work well - just check your tension/gauge - (details of the yarn used are given in the pattern).
Actual amount of yarn used is approx. – 0-3 months - 29g/40m/44yds 3-6 months – 32g/44m/48yds 6-12 months – 41g/56m/62ydsCute and fashionable, and looks good in any colour! And with a pattern also available for 2yrs to adult, you could have a hat for all the family!
Full support if needed - I am always willing to help.
(If you want to adjust the length, it is adjustable.)

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/
