Assembly Instructions

Step 1: Attaching the Eyes

Using a tapestry needle, attach eyes to the body. Place the eyes a few rows below the top and 2-3 stitches apart:

Step 2: Inserting Safety Eyes

Insert safety eyes in the middle of the white eyes:

Step 3: Adding the Nose

Get a tapestry needle with orange yarn and embroider the nose in a triangle shape:

Step 4: Stuffing the Owl

After completing the eyes, use some filling to stuff the owl. When stuffed, slip stitch the entire top to close it off:

Step 5: Creating the Ears

Cut 10 strands of yarn about 20 centimeters long; 5 strands for each side. I wrapped the yarn around my book to make it easier.

Take your first strand, fold it in half, and slip stitch it through a top corner. Make 5 strands on each side:

Step 6: Attaching the Keychain

Finally, attach the keychain to the top of the crochet owl head, and we are done!
