What was your inspiration?

This past summer the local library had a summer reading program for children, They received for every 15 minutes of reading raffle tickets and could put them in boxes to win prizes, I have donated several of these owls as their prizes. Apparently the owls were success and children loved them.

What are you most proud of?

How cute the owls are.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Read the directions through, and if you ahve any questions contact me.
Enjoy the knitting.
