With pride I present my Ollie the Owl

Ollie now has a bonus envelope border for interlocking and mosaic.

Ollie (like Howling Wolf and Flower Doodles) is a medium size project (120 hours). Depending on yarn thickness Ollie can become a bedspread (single), lap throw or wall hanging so Ollie’s size will depend greatly on your chosen yarn. Light fingering yarn will give you a lap throw, DK will give you a bedspread.

As you are used of me Ollie comes in two techniques:
Interlocking filet and Overlay mosaic crochet. Both come with small charts, small inversed chart, written pattern, tutorials and links to examples and video’s. There is also a printable large X chart for overlay mosaic.
