as I said....

check the background before posting

when taking photos 

!!!!

have had inquiries about

 the owl

see it in the back there

nothing much of anything

 but it caught a few eagle eyed readers

as did the heart

!!!???

see...just a circle with a little embellishment 

and a piece of felt for the beak....

do owls have beaks or is there another name for it???

hmmmm!!!

I did

16 sc in a magic ring and made three rows with different colours

(try to go in between the stitches on the second row, not into the top of the stitch

so you get a pattern of sorts 

uneven tho' it may be!!!!  :) :)

change colour

as many times as you like

then make two triangular shapes somewhere on the edge

for the back of the eyes

do something like

sc hdc dc tdc dc hdc sc

twice

make two small circles for the eyes

I did 7 sc in a magic ring

attach them to the triangles with a french knot or if you can't do that 3/4 straight stitches

if you have bits and bobs of yarn sew a few stitches here and there

a triangle of felt and another to cover the back to hide all the knots and ends

e voila.....

hooty patooty

♥

the heart???

look up crochet hearts 

on the interwebs

 and 

you will find many patterns there

I haven't a clue which one I used

so take your choice of what you find!!!!

******************************************************************************

we didn't get any of the storm that ravaged the coast

there are no words left to describe what must be going on up there

one of the blogs I read has finally come back up

they were without power for

8 days

 they aren't on the coast

and it snowed on them yesterday but thankfully they kept the heat

and it's only the beginning of November

we may not say anything but believe me we think of you all 

every time we switch a light on or the furnace clicks on

or we feel the hot water
