This pattern just proves that necessity is the mother of invention! Not a great invention but creation of a pattern nonetheless.
Needed a bunch of key-rings with handcrafted attachments as a gift idea. Was looking up the Ravelry with a tiny owl in mind. When I did not get any, I just made up this one.
Can be made in an hour’s time, crocheting takes 20 minutes including making the eyes. Rest is the assembly time.
You can pick up little bits of scrap yarn that must be lying aplenty in your stash basket and convert those into these cute Hootie-rings as a last moment gift.
Let me admit and acknowledge that, I was highly impressed and influenced by Owlets by Brigitte Read.
