Keeping warm, looking cool—function and fashion come together in this lovely owl Hat!
Two styles, two yarn weight options to choose from. Accessorize it with cute owl face elements, crocheted separately and then sewn on, glass beads, fun fur trim details, matching tassels or pompoms to complete the Owleta look!
Treat your loved ones with the luxurious feel of this hat this delightful winter! Opt for bamboo or cotton blends for fall and spring time. A perfect gift idea too!

Udemy + Owleta Hat Pattern Update
| January 9, 2017 | Filled under Featured, Update |
Hi my dear friends,
I hope you enjoy a new 2017 as much as we are!! We are so excited and feel to turn this year into learning something new.
So, thank you Udemy for such AWESOME $10 per course deal – personally I ordered 12 courses so far… and still looking for more, – there are really so MUCH interesting stuff!!
If you are curious, below are some courses I got:
Learn to draw fashion with Adobe Illustrator CC Intermediate
Social Media Marketing 2017 – Learn PPC on 10+ Platforms
…and The Complete Android N Developer Course – because to my surprise, I found that I really missed “that” stuff
A reason of this my unusual evening post is that Udemy promotion ends January, 10 on 11:59 PM PST. It’s amazing deal to get courses for only $10 if you are looking for something new to learn.
And now for the pattern update. The pattern is 90% done – all diagrams are finished as well as writing instructions. All sizes are tested too. What I still need to do: take pictures of Option 2 and detail pictures of option 1. And polish written instruction a bit. I hope to make this pattern available in the beginning of next week.
Yours,
Alla Koval
