- G crochet hook (4 mm)
- 2- 8 mm safety eyes

Instructions:
With the owl about half of the pieces are made with a magic ring and worked in the round and the other half begin with a chain (sometimes a very short one), it is indicated in the pattern which way each piece is made. The eyes are added to the face piece rather than to the head like they normally are, If you don't want to make the face and just want to add the eyes to the head, just add them in the same place as all of the other animals in the set (between rounds 13-14 of the head).
