A cute winter accessory, this owl hood is a hoot to knit! Designed in the lovely hand-dyed yarn of Mosaic Moon, the yarn selected for this pattern is not the least bit itchy, and is comfortable to wear right up against the skin. The multi-colored yarn imitates the pattern of feathers and the owl cables with their cute button eyes make a great decorative pattern that is rewarding to knit up.

This hood is a one-size-fits-all children and adults. The hood fits a little looser on children, but this look is adorable on kids and no less comfortable. This versatile garment can also be worn with the hood down as a neck warmer. Finally, the hood pattern comes with an option to felt a little bit of roving right onto the knitted fabric of the ears to for an cute fluffy ear effect.
