One of the most loved children's patterns available from Kate Davies in an extensive size range from 6 months to 10 years with pattern details for aran and bulky weight yarn!  Cables are delicately crafted to form a yoke of owls on an otherwise simple sweater in bulky weight yarn. Eyes of the owls can be small buttons or sequins.

These sweater are designed for babies' body shapes -- with a shallower yoke depth, and a wider neck than the adult Owls, to allow for proportionately larger heads and smaller chests/shoulders.  Please note, pattern is close fitting.  You may prefer to go up 1 size for a loose fit with growing room.

Kit includes pattern and yarn.  Buttons or sequins not included.  The pattern covers 10 sizes from 6 months to 10 years in two different yarn weights (aran and chunky).  For Ball Winding services click here.  For kits for child sizes 3-10, go to Kids Owlet
