Knitting Pattern for Mr. Barn Owl by Georgina Manvell

Introducing the delightful Mr. Barn Owl, a charming knitting pattern brought to you by renowned designer Georgina Manvell. When completed in DK yarn, Mr. Owl measures an adorable 16.5cm (6.5 inches), making him the perfect addition to your knitted menagerie. Please note that the Dormouse is NOT included in this pattern.

This enchanting knitting pattern was first featured in the Home & Country magazine in September 1990, as part of the article titled Animal Magic Country Almanack Knitted Animals. We have lovingly included a nostalgic picture of the Barn Owl as it originally appeared in the magazine for your reference and enjoyment.

Recognizing that Mr. Barn Owl deserved a modern touch, we have updated the visuals to showcase his timeless appeal. He still looks absolutely fantastic, don't you think? Rest assured, this updated version features the same beloved pattern that was originally published in Home & Country, but with fresh, vibrant photography. Designers Georgina Manvell and Suzannah Holwell now collaborate as partners under the creative business name The Old Toy Knitting Shop, proudly maintaining shared copyrights from 1990 and 2010.

Please be aware that selling or reproducing toys made from our designs for any commercial purposes is strictly prohibited. It is illegal to reproduce this knitting pattern in any format, including alterations, copies, digital downloads, sales on CDs, or photocopying. Your understanding and adherence to these regulations help support the integrity and creativity of independent designers like us.

Gather your knitting needles and DK yarn, and bring Mr. Barn Owl to life with this delightful pattern. Ideal for both beginner and experienced knitters, this project offers not only a creative outlet but also the chance to create an adorable companion.
