Here’s some pics of the amazing OWL jumpers I made all by myself (with a little help from Kate Davies and Made Peachy!).

The first one was my first ever attempt at knitting a jumper, which I gave to a friend for Christmas, and the second one was an adapted pattern for a longer-length jumper which I made for myself.

OWL jumper number 1:

Starting the sleeves

Mum helpfully models it to let me see how it looks (she’s about the same size as the friend I was making it for). I just adore those OWLS! I so proud of myself too – it’s the first time I’ve ever used cable knitting techniques!

Then the buttons go on!

Ta da!!

OWL Jumper number 2 – adapted for a longer length with help from Kate Davies and Made Peachy!

Starting off…

Checking to see if my “bum modifications” were big enough!

Done with the body…

Time for the sleeves…

Putting the pieces together

And here are the OWLS!

Pretty chuffed that it fits!

Yeah that’s right, I’m a poser…
