Some hand warmes with an owl cable stitch I finished recently. I didn't have much of a pattern, so I hope this post is still allowed.
Basically, I went off this picture for the owl/kable knit pattern and used some pattern for gloves to get the thumbs right.
I was thinking about maybe adding french knot stitches as eyes to make the owls more prominent, but I think I like the plain version better.
Oh my gosh, this is incredible. I've got far too many projects on the go at the moment, and I'm only a novice knitter, so I probably won't get to this any time soon, but I am saving this post for future reference; I have a friend who would adore this as a gift.
What pattern did you use for the gloves? I've been debating doing a simple pair of hand warmers for myself, and that seems like it would be good practice.
Glad you like them :) I used this pattern for the glove, however it is in German. There were some patterns in English I just looked up which seem to be somewhat similar (like these for example).
