Potholder Owl Klausi – Double Knitting Instructions

Klausi is probably the cutest owl in my owl collection. He looks really good on this potholder and makes a great gift for a loved one or for your own kitchen. Perhaps you would even like to knit a potholder set? You can find matching potholders in my store at: https://www.crazypatterns.net/de/users/view_collection/3244/eulen-eulen-eulen. There you will also find an economy set with four matching potholders.

The potholder is double knitted and is therefore beautiful on both sides. As the stitch sequence is written out in full in the instructions and the instructions also contain a counting pattern, it is easy to knit. I wish you lots of fun knitting it.
