Assembly
- Attach the eyes between round 10 and round 16 on the body.
- Sew the wings to the sides of the body, ensuring that the pointy part points slightly forward.
Attach the wings to the sides of the body, ensuring that the pointed ends are slightly oriented towards the front. Create a nose by embroidering it with orange yarn (or another of your preference).
I recommend using pins to secure any loose parts in place. This will help you visualize the final result and prevent them from shifting while you’re sewing.
Granny Square
To create a 10-round granny square with a 10mm (G-sized) hook, followed by 1 round of single crochet (SC) with 3 SC in the corners, and then 1 round of scalloped edges, you can follow these instructions. I’ll provide a basic pattern for each round, but feel free to adjust the colors as you like:
Materials:
- G-sized (10mm) crochet hook
- Worsted weight yarn in the colors of your choice
- Yarn needle for weaving in ends
Directions:
Round 1: Start with a magic ring. Chain 3 (counts as your first double crochet), make 2 double crochets into the ring. Chain 2, 3 double crochets into the ring, chain 2 – repeat this three more times. Slip stitch to the top of the initial chain 3 to close the round.
Round 2: Slip stitch into the next 2 stitches, slip stitch into the corner space. Chain 3 (counts as your first double crochet), make 2 double crochets into the same corner space. Chain 2, 3 double crochets into the same corner space. Chain 1, 3 double crochets into the next corner space, chain 2, 3 double crochets into the same corner space – repeat this three more times. Chain 1, and slip stitch to the top of the initial chain 3 to close the round.
Rounds 3-10: Repeat Round 2, working 3 double crochets, chain 1, 3 double crochets in each corner space, and chain 1 between clusters. Continue for a total of 10 rounds. Fasten off and weave in ends.
Round 11 (Single Crochet Round): Join a new color yarn in any corner space. Chain 1, and work 3 single crochets in the same corner space. Single crochet across each side of the square, working 3 single crochets in each corner space – repeat this for all four corners. Slip stitch to the first single crochet to close the round. Fasten off and weave in ends.
Scalloped Edges: To create a scalloped edge, you can use a picot stitch. In each stitch around the square, work the following pattern:
Slip stitch in the first stitch.
Chain 3.
Slip stitch in the third chain from the hook (this creates a picot).
Slip stitch in the next stitch.
Repeat steps 2-4 in each stitch around the square, working picot stitches evenly.
Continue this pattern for the entire round. Once you’ve completed the scalloped edge, slip stitch to the beginning of the round to close it. Fasten off and weave in any remaining ends.
Your granny square with a single crochet round and scalloped edges is now complete! You can use various colors and combinations to make it unique and beautiful.
Security Blanket
To complete your security blanket, sew the owl into the center of the granny square, utilizing the front loops that remain from round 4. Afterward, make sure to weave in all the loose ends, and your blanket will be complete.
