Needlewomen who are crocheted or knitted do not stop at creating one piece of clothing. An element such as a knitted owl is involved in many products. It can be a separate toy, a children's handbag, a rug, a child’s hat, key rings, potholders and many other items of both the interior and decoration of wearable items. In this article, we will look at how to knit an owl in several variations.
Knitted owl. Master class on creating an original toy
Great experience in creating such a toy is not needed. Enough basic knowledge. How to crochet an owl and not ruin the product? Take advantage of our workshop. The basis of the product is made up of two colorful circles sewn together. Simple columns, half- columns with a crochet and whole columns with one crochet, as well as a connecting loop will participate in the work. A knitted owl can be just an interior toy hanging on a cabinet handle or curtain rod.
Take yarn of different colors, but of the same thickness, and the hook corresponding to the threads. Work begins with 4 air loops connected in a ring. Then lift the next row, knitting 3 air loops, and make 13 double crochets into the ring. Connect a row in a circle. Since our knitted owl will be colored and bright, cut the thread and take a yarn of a different color. Next, attach the thread between the columns of the last row and knit a chain of 3 air loops. In the same place, tie the crochet column. Repeat 13 more times - make an increase in each space between the columns. At the end of the row you should get 28 loops. After fixing a new thread of a different color, knit three double crochet between the columns of the previous circle. After making 42 loops, connect the row and cut the thread.
Head Knotting and Assembly
A knitted owl should be dense, so similarly create the second side of the toy, using threads of different colors. The order of the shades can be changed at will. In the next row we will shape the head. Enter the yarn between the columns, fix the connecting loop and knit 2 more airy, here is a double crochet. Next, one column twice, then again 2 CCH in the interval between the columns of the last row. Repeat again, finish with a double crochet and then knit single crochet in a circle. Close the row by connecting the first and last loops. We form places under the eyes. To do this, go up one air loop, 2 tbsp.sn together, then 1 tbsp.s., 1 half ss.sn, 3 columns in series, then mirror - 1 half.s.s., then 1 tbsp. .s.sn., 2 senior.s.s. together. Finish the row with one half-w.s. and connecting loop. Repeat all the steps with the second half of the owl.
Muzzle
Knit eyes from white thread. Connect 3 air loops and knit into the resulting ring 11 st.s. Pull the thread coming out of the middle, tightening the eye. Close a row with a connecting loop and cut a thread. Tie the second eye in the same way. Sew the circles to one side of the body. Embroider a beak between the eyes. Sew pupils from black beads or beads. Sew the two halves while filling the toy with a padding polyester. Owl ears can be shaggy. To do this, take the thread, fold it several times and thread it with a hook into the corners of the body above the eyes, pull the ends through the loop formed and tighten more tightly. Do the same on the other side. It remains to trim the ends, leaving small tails. From the master class, we learned how to crochet an owl.
Owls in the products
Soft toys and decorative items made of yarn are crocheted mainly. Such crafts have a texture, hold their shape, are stored for a long time and look aesthetically attractive. The owl knits in the canvas and is a pattern. It can be used when knitting mittens, hats, sweaters, scarves. It can also be included as a pattern in creating a blanket or rug. The pattern is knitted with facial loops on the wrong side. The rapport consists of 14 loops and 32 rows. In the odd rows, the first 6 loops are facial, 2 wrong, and again 6 facial. The even ones fit in the pattern. In the fifth row we need an auxiliary knitting needle. The first three loops are picked up by the auxiliary and put out for work, then we knit the next three loops in the facial way, then the front ones from the extra knitting needles, 2 wrong ones, we change the next six loops in mirror image. 3 loops before work, three front loops, we return to work loops with an additional knitting needle. Starting from the 6th row to the 20th row, in even loops, they are knitted with the wrong method, in odd ones, with the front method. In the 21st row, leave 3 loops at work, knit 4 front loops, then return the loops from the add-on. knitting needles, 4 eyelets in front of the product, next 3 facial, then 4 sec. knitting needles.
From the 22nd to the 28th rows, even to knit purl, odd - facial. The 29th is repeated similarly to the 21st row. 30th row: 3 izn.petli, 8 persons., 3 izn. 31st row: 2 persons., 10 out., 2 persons. 32 row: 1 out., 12 persons., 1 out.
Wrong loops fit between the elements. The Owl pattern is often decorated with
knitted baby items.
