"I’m excited to share a book review along with an excerpted owl crochet pattern with you! Notes from Underground Crafter This pattern uses UK crochet pattern abbreviations and international stitch symbols. You can find a list of abbreviations and a comparison of US and UK pattern abbreviations here and a list of international stitch symbols here on the Craft Yarn Council website. Oombawka Design Crochet has helpful photo and video tutorials for the magic ring here. Yarn Obsession has a helpful video tutorial for the dc2tog (sc2tog in US terms) here. Barn Owl The facial disc of the barn owl is crocheted in rows of increased stitches, creating a curled piece that forms the shaping.
