'Barn Brain' Fair Isle Baby Barn Owl No.2

A striking and beautiful baby barn owl who is just growing his adult "feathers", this is the second of three knitted baby barn owl designs created entirely from scratch.  It has been part machine knitted and part hand knitted in the Scottish Fair Isle style as well as crocheted.  It incorporates mohair to give the effect of baby "feathers" as well as handmade wire feet and wooden beak plus bead eyes on its inquisitive face.  
 
All Audrey's birds are accompanied by a poem and this one reads:
The perpendicular perspective is always more objective.
 
Approximately 22cm tall x 12cm wide x 14cm deep. 
 
Not a toy.  Not suitable for young children.
