It's Mrs Swirl's birthday today and I thought it was about time I cabled her some owls. She (rather cheekily) emailed me this
link before Christmas but I just didn't get around to doing anything with it, until now that is........
I knitted this owl with the intention of mounting it on a card for her.
It kind of grew out of all proportion so I ended up mounting it on a box frame (about 30cm x 30cm).
It's on a machine embroidered (I use the term very loosely) tree, with some hand embroidered text and a couple of felt leaves.
I finished it with this amazing 1970s braid.
And knitted three owls and mounted them onto a felt back with a brooch pin so she can bung it on her coat.
