This beautiful little Owl Family is sure to be loved by all! This pattern consists of 3 little owls - Mommy Owl, Little Boy Owl, and Baby Girl Owl. Because of their small size they are great stash busters! They are all knitted out of self striping yarn so there is no need to change colours except for Mommy Owl’s toes. This is an easy pattern for those with some knitting and I-cord experience.
