A Row of Owls
“There was a wise old owl who sat in a tree, the less he spoke the more he heard, the more he heard the less he spoke. Why can’t we be like that wise old owl in the tree?”
- Paul Ricoeur, ‘A Wise Old Owl’
“Remember, the birds in the air and the animals in the field are always listening and watching.” The Freedom to move with Knowledge
Materials:
• One 3.25mm / US size 3 circular needle, 40cm / 16” in length, or size needed to meet the required gauge.
• One 2.75mm / US size 2 circular needle, 40cm / 16” in length, or one US size smaller than needle size used to obtain gauge.
• One 3.25mm / US size 3 circular needle, 80cm / 32” or 100cm / 40” in length, for magic loop or one set of 3.25mm / US size 3 DPNs, or size needed to meet the required gauge.
• Optional: Stitch markers, 12, one of which is used to mark the beginning of round.
• Tapestry needle for sewing in threads, and blocking materials.
• Fingering weight yarn in two colours, approximately 160m / 175yds of the Main Colour (Light Gray) and approximately 60m (66yds) of the Contrast Colour (Black). Sample shown in Miss La Motte Singles, in colourway Abalone (MC), and in colourway Nightmare (CC).
Size:
One size, 51cm (20”) in circumference, measured flat at the widest part of the hat. The hat measures approximately 25cm (10”) from the crown to cast on edge.
Gauge:
28 stitches and 36 rows, is 10cm (4”) in stranded knitting, knitted in the round, and blocked. Knitting to gauge is important to ensure that your knitted item is the correct size, and to ensure that yardage requirements are similar to those stated in the pattern.
Owls inspired by a vintage cross stitch design.
