Pill-Owl
This festive season, try your hand at this supersoft, cute and cosy owl pillow. It makes an awesome and adorable home-made holiday gift!
Fun facts: owls symbolize wisdom and courage and a group of owls is called a parliament. Although almost all owls are nocturnal, the snowy owl mainly digs the daytime.
So, while this throw pillow will look delightful decorating your bed, beware the hooting parliament of pillow owls won’t keep you up at night!
This model was knitted with approximately 7 balls of Drops Lima on 3 mm knitting needles and a 3 mm cable needle. The colours used were: 4 x dark ivy (9030), 1 x wheat (0206), 1 x beige (0619), 0.2 x white (1101) and 0.1 x black (8903).
This pillow was done on thinner needles then indicated for this yarn and therefore, there were more stitches in a 10 by 10 cm swatch.
The piece is suitable for a 60 x 30 cm fill pillow.
The pillow is a medium knit. It asks for some intarsia colour work (bringing the yarn over to the back of the work, as the purl side (background) is the RIGHT SIDE) and cable knitting. The instructions have colour coding.
Have a magic-owl knit! Viv
