Owl Eye Mask

If you are a night owl in need of

some darkness, this simple-to-

make eye mask could twit twoo

you. Though you needn’t have

owl eyes, you could have cats

eyes, closed eyes or anything

you like.

Yarn Selection

•I used leftover scraps of dk / light worsted cotton yarns, in the colours that I had

available, for this simple and quick project.

Main mask

Step 1: Chain 39 stitches.

Step 2: Use one as the original turning stitch, then single crochet 10 lines of 38 stitches.

Step 3: Cast off the crochet.

Step 4: Start crocheting again in the 8th stitch from the edge. From this position, fan

stitch 7 single crochets into the 9th stitch (or however many it needs to make a

Semicircle).

Step 5: Once this is done, single crochet round the fan, being careful to anchor each

line into the main rectangle, so it makes a joined-up fabric. (It took me 7 lines of single

crochet until the end of the semi circle met up with the end of the base rectangle.)

Step 6: Repeat this on the other side. (It should leave a nose sized gap in the middle.)

Step 7: Crochet round the entire mask in a contrasting colour to hold everything

together and give it a nice edge.

Detail of eye mask

Optional Extra (Owl)

Step 1 : The eyes are just a crocheted circle ending up with 42 stitches. I then did one

round in brown and the next in white with 6 picot stitches to create a ruffle. The inside of

the eye is just a loosely embroidered diamond.

Detail of beak

Step 2: The beak is made from ten single crochet stitches, which are naturally reduced by

not using a turning stitch. I then crocheted once around the triangle to give it a nice

finish.

Step 3: Sew everything up!

Become a night owl!!!!!!!
