Quick and Easy Owl Ball

 

I made those owls with cotton yarn and 3 mm hook. They are about 5-6 cm tall (about 2 inches). I wanted something quick and easy and this is my version of the popular owl look. They are worked from top down, you can see this in the pictures below. I am still waiting my safety eyes to be delivered, so I had to sew some. 

Supplies: 
You will need yarn, crochet hook, stuffing, darning needle and scissors of course :)

Funny Little Puppy

The puppies are my first written pattern. The measure about 13 cm from head to tail (5 inches). I made all the parts and sew them at the end. I like to use pins, it's easier to work with them and especially for this pattern because the puppy has to stay on its feets. Be sure they can stand up before sewing them. Sew the head first. You can add some more stuffings in the front legs to make them stronger.
As you can see you can play with colours here. The colour change can be seamless. Start with colour A. Finish the last single crochet of the round with colour B, then make a slip stitch. The colour change is specific since you are working in spiral.

Supplies:
cotton yarn, 3.0 mm crochet hook, marker, stuffing, needle for sewing, scissors,
safety eyes and nose or dark yarn for those

 This pattern is free. You are not allowed to sell the pattern or any parts of it. Please respect the copyright law in regard to Nadezhda Petrova. You can sell the finished products.
