Anyways... another owl crochet. Couple years ago I bought this gorgeous owl necklace and just thought how would it be, if crocheted. So with silver yarn and size 1 (10 US, 4 UK) crochet hook, decided to give it a try. Should have used either size 1.5 (7 US, 2"/42 UK) or 2 (4 US, 1 UK) as the silver yarn was kind off "stiff" and rough so that the small hook unraveled the yarn from time to time.
This is how it turned out though and I'm not quite pleased with it.
Probably should have done eyes and beak to give it a better look. But I think I'll try doing it again with a different, more delicate, yarn. In any case, the head was done using same technique as in Hoot! post but the body and wings are made from chain stitch chains following the necklace pattern. I must admit, the necklace is much more beautiful looking!
That's all today!
