The Crochet Owl C2C Blanket is finished and ready! If you’ve always wanted to give the corner-to-corner technique of crocheting a try this is a great project to start with! I have created the owl design with consistent lines and minimal color changes, plus I included a detailed written and photo tutorial for you to follow if you are a beginner which includes directions on how to do increases and decreases, how to add new colors, and how to carry yarn. Also pictures on how to use bobbins! You can find the graph, tutorial, photos, and color change pattern all on the Lion Brand Yarn website! This blanket makes a wonderful baby gift and a must have piece for those of you who are owl-obsessed like me 🙂

In addition, I’ve created a full written pattern! Each stitch is written out for those who have trouble reading the graphs.

This is awesome! I can’t wait to try a c2c with color changes. I do have one question. When you go to use the color you left attached when do you cut the yarn? And how would you tie it off if there is a some distance between color changes?
Znakomita sowa ! :o)
It will be my first graphic c2c…
Love the pattern..
Thank you
Kimberly

Hi, currently working on this awesome little blanket… one question. I am on row 15, in the written pattern it has rows 14 and 15 written in twice and it throws off the chain 3+ dc 3 increase. Can you tell me what I’m supposed to do after the first row 15 please!
skip those 2 rows 14 and 15, but watch your counts in the next several row.
Amy…I seen your comment…have not done this one yet….but if you check the pattern written on Lion website each row is only done once….I was checking this pattern out for my great nephew and seen that you were still waiting for a reply….I hope that helps you. I’m sure you will get a reply soon from this site. good luck
Love the pattern and plan to start on it as soon as I get the yarn. What I am interested in at the moment are your yarn bobbins. They look to be clothes pins…and would really love to know how that works.. keeping up with several colors of thread is always my biggest problem. Will you tell us how to fix those clothespins (if that is what they are). Many thanks for all the wonderful patterns you make available for free….so VERY KIND of you.
I made an owl blanket for my new nephew, and it was so fun. This was my first C2C, and it won’t be my last. Thanks for the pattern!
I am a lefty do i need to read the rows backwards?
No
I absolutely loved making this owl blankie. Now I want to try making my own graph. What program did you use?
Can you show what the blanket looks like on the other side?
Thanks so much.
Hi Sarah, I have just found your beautiful owl pattern and I’m busy doing it. I do have a question though. I live in South Africa and our wool is weighted different to yours. We have 4 ply or double knit etc… I have tried to find conversion on the Internet but no such luck for me, so I was wondering what weight wool did you use to get the blanket to be size it is in your photo. Also what size hook did you use?
Thank you for the lovely pattern and for all your hard work in putting it together.
I was following the “pattern” on the lion website where it lists the number of blocks of each color rather than c3 3dc etc. I used different colors and the letter designations were confusing me so I wrote out long hand those same instructions but with my color designations. Now I’ve hit a road block where I think I wrote it down wrong so I tried to go back to the lion site but it shows that page is no longer available. Can you help me out? Thanks so much!!!
I’m not able to get the tutorial from Lion Brand’s site. Is it available anywhere else?
Thank you so much for taking the time to write this pattern! It is my first time doing c2c and it is so much fun! I think I found a little mistake in your pattern in row 24, I think it should be 5 blocks of sapphire instead of 6.
Thank you again! 🙂
Hello Sarah! I have started the C2C Owl Baby Afghan & love it. The only problem is I don’t have a list of the yarns & amounts needed. Can you email that to me?
I do have the written instructions.
Greatly appreciated, thanks!
Debbie
how did you get the instruction I’m unable – can you send them to me thanks [email protected] Darlene

This is the pattern on the lion brand website. It has a list of the yarns that you will need if you are going to use the lion brand. You can always substitute just be sure that you look at the amount of oz or yards on your choice compared to the ones that they used.
http://www.lionbrand.com/baby-owl-corner-to-corner-c2c-blanket.html
here is the list on the lion brand website. They show you the list of the yarns they used and how many. I hope this helps and you are able to complete this awesome project!

Trying to download pattern and graph from the Lion brand site and i am unable to it keeps saying its invalid format. If there is anyway you could email it to me i would greatly appreciate it. Can’t to start working on this project
Thank you so much☺

I am currently trying this but i am on row 21 the way the pattern is written the first stitch for the foot will be at the wing I have started it 3 times and get the same results any suggestions?
Super Cute!! I am trying to get the graph of the color change and the webpage came out to be an error. Is there a way I could get the graph?
Im trying to download the graph pattern, not the written one…does anyone have it that can email it to me please? The link is not working. [email protected]… Thank you.
I am super happy to have found your website, I’ve made the c2c owl and bear. I have credited you whenever I have posted my pics. Could you please create some small baby shower gifts for girls. Love your website.
Thanks for the pattern. It will be my first c2c project.
I am working on this pattern and noticed that in each row the number of chain 3 + 3 DC are 1 less than the row number. When you finish row 15, the next row is 14 and the chain 3 + 3 dc are now 1 more than the row number. When I get to the row labeled 19, when I count the chain 3 + 3 dc, I get 18, then I add the beginning chain 6 and the 2 dc for a total of 19, which is correct. In the previous row (row #18) the total is 19 plus the beginning chain 6 + 2 dc for a total of 20. I think row 14 and 15 are labeled twice but the stitch count still increases. Can you please check this and update the instructions?
What size is the blanket and what size hook do you use. It doesn’t say at the lion brand site. There is an error in line 57.
Lion says 404, not found!!
Where is the chart please???
Sorry, i’m silly here!!
Thanks, angeline
How much yarn is needed for this project and what hook size did you use?
