If you’ve been following my blog for awhile you know I can’t get enough of owl projects! Scroll through my blog, you will see plenty of owl crafts and owl crochet patterns… even fun owl cupcakes! This sweet crochet owl is perfect for Valentine’s Day because he has a little heart on his tummy. I used the soft and squishy Bernat Blanket yarn which makes this little guy extra plush and quick to work up.
Materials:
– Bernat Blanket Baby yarn in Seafoam and Pink. Plus a bit of white/neutral for the eyes. Shop all colors at Yarnspirations.com.
– Size J Crochet Hook
– Triangle button for nose (purchase at JOANNs) or a bit of orange yarn to stitch on the beak.
– Poly-fil Fiber Stuffing
– 9mm Safety Eyes
– Tapestry Needle
Feel free to follow heart graph or just follow the written pattern below (color changes are written out)
NOTE: I used the knit-look (waistcoat stitch) just in the heart area. Short video below:
Another Note: Wouldn’t this make a cute little crochet heart bowl instead of an owl if stopped after round 14?!
Body Pattern:
Magic Ring, chain 1 and make 10 SC in ring, join, chain 1 (10 SC)
Round 2: 2 SC in each stitch around, join, chain 1 (20 SC)

about how much yarn did this take? I love this for my daughter but need to order yarn online.
I have made a two so far out of a large skein and still have yarn left.
How sweet! You are so generous, sharing your patterns. Thank You much.
I made some owls last year for Valentines Day and added a small card on the wing that said ( “Owl” always love you). Went over well.
I made some owls last year and added a card on the wing that said “Owl always love you!”. It went over well for most. Took a few minutes for others to figure it out.
I will be trying this pattern soon.

Hi,
At the end of row 6 you say ch 1 and turn? I thought we just, joined ch1 and continued around?
Thank You, Paula
Paula…I am at the end of round 6 and thought the same thing. I think it’s a typo so i’m gonna just join & chain 1. Unfortunately i’ve come to find that the pattern writer does not get back to people with questions on here nor Facebook. She just posts. I’m glad i’m not the only one who caught that though, lol.
Glad to hear I wasn’t the only one confused!
DO YOU HAVE TUTORIAL HOW TO MAKE THE OVERSTUFFED OWL PILLOW/
I also found what appears to be a wrong number of rows to complete the body. I did 18 rows total and did 6 rows once I completed the heart but it was hard to place the eyes like she had them following the pic. If u count the number of rows she has in the pic she actually did 7/rows. I chose to add the extra row because I loved how hers looked. Just an FYI.
I just love this owl it’s just so cute ..
Hi Sarah, is there a full video of how to crochet the heart graph in your valentine owl? I’m trying the pattern and I just can’t get the heart to look right. I have never attempted this before.
Thank you in advance for any help you can offer.
Wow! The pillow is so cute. Thanks for sharing that how you made it. Students always like to read reviews on https://essayreviewexpert.com/review/edubirdie/ website about edubirdie. I will make it for my young daughter. She always wanted to have a pillow that would be special to her and I think this is the one.
To write an outline means to create a plan. So it ma be very useful. The essay outline template will help thise students who are not sure how to write it.
That article is just great!Thanks a lot
