* Soft Grey and White Owl with Upcycled Metal Button Eyes with a Flower Motif. Handemade. Crocheted.




This owl was crocheted freehand and given beautiful silvery metal upcycled button eyes with a flower motif.

The body is a pretty mottled gray, crocheted with two colors of yarn. It is soft to touch, not a fluffy feel but more firm with bumpy tight stitches that feel nice on the fingers. The beak is the same grey as is in the body. The yarn is made of unknown man made fibers, most likely polyester or acrylic, and stuffed with  polyester fiber fill.

The beautifully detailed metal button eyes have a lovely flower motif and are upcycled.

The owl measures about 3 inches by 3 inches and is very light and squeezable.
