Custom Owl beanie

I love doing custom orders. It's so much fun to make someone's vision. It may take you a bit longer but the end product always looks awesome. I had to do a floppy, chunky owl beanie and this is what I made:

Gillian's Owl beanie

This is how the beanie looks not on. I made it with chunky Aran wool in creamicrop. I used orange for the beak and flower, and I used silver and purple for the eyes, ears, beanie border and ties.

Here is a close up of the eyes and beak (left) and a close up of the flower.

I sewed only the center of the flower so the petals aren't sewed on. I added a little heart button on the flower and some pearly buttons for the eyes.

This is what the beanie looks like on. The top bit has a lot of space to make it floppy so it depends on you how you'd like to wear it. The ties I left SUPER long so that if the client wanted to shorten them, she could undo the knot and shorten it :D
