owl wallhanging

i posted pictures of a purple owl wall hanging. i have made two of them. they are easy to make. i did change them a little . instead of the eyes that move. i just crochet them. i also just left off the bead, and the flower. well here are the pictures.

picture 1 i did not make. it belongs to a friend.

this was my first one that i made.

i used size k hook.

i used peaches 'n cream double worsted yarn.

this is the second one i made.

i used size i hook. (i think)

i used peaches 'n cream yarn.

as you can see this one is not quite finished. i just need to sew the eyes on.

well i thought you might like to know how i done this. here it is.

Owl wall hanging

• make three granny squares the same size.
• place one to the side.
• place two of them together. with them held together, single crochet around both of them . now they are held together. place them to the side.
• pick up the one you place to the side Early. now fold it in half to make a triangle. now single crochet around the open edge of the triangle.
• since they are both made now. all you need to do is place the triangle on top of the square in one corner. now just sew it in to place.
• now you can do the eyes. make a magic circle, double crochet in the circle. join then double crochet the next row. you want it to be a little tight. you want it to look like a little bowl.
• now you can glue in the wiggly eyes in the center of the little bowls. or you can do just like i did. i made two magic circles with the double crochet in two different colors. then i placed them together and double crochet around them.
• now all you half to do is put them on the owl.
• one more thing at the top of the owl there is a circle. I'm not sure what the hard thing is in side it. it was single crochet around it. then attached to the top of the owl. so you can hang it up. ( i just wrapped the yarn around three fingers. about 4 or 5 times. then single crochet around the circle. just make sure it is stiff. join together and weave in the ends.then attach it to the top of the owl by sewing it on.

the original one was hot glued together. and they had added a bead and a flower to it.

• i sewed mine together for a couple of reasons. 1 : i don't like the hard spots the hot glue made . 2: i did not like the strings the hot glue left on it. 3: if you wanted to you could you the owl as a potholder.

i will make another one and make pictures of it as i make it . then i will post them.

if there is something you do not understand just let me know. i will try to explain it better.

enjoy and Be Blessed.
