The Ernest Owl tea cosy is handcrafted from double thickness yarn for extra insulation.

The Ernest Owl is made from brown yarns that are worked in stripes to give a lovely feathery look.

The big orange eyes are also knitted and they really stand out. The beak is knitted in a copper colour and is shaped into a hooked beak.

The owl is one of your easiest knitting patterns to make.
