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.

    Beautiful! I’m madly jealous of anyone who can just ad hoc a pattern, that’s like magic to me.

      Thank you! I had to redo a couple of rows because I wasn’t happy with the cable placement relative to the rib stitches and to get the owl proportions right, though. And I think having done gloves before helped the most :)
