Crochet Pattern for left-handers: The Grim Reaper and his owl.

Product description

Please note: This is not an actual doll but just a pattern that can be used to make a doll.

Included are instructions for the Grim Reaper, all his clothes, scythe and owl.

The Grim Reaper and his owl was inspired by an old legend about brown owls. Their “kiwit” sounds like the German “komm mit” (come with me). In ancient times, people believed if you heard that sound, you or somebody close to you would die in the near future.
When I did some more research on that, I found illustrations showing the Grim Reaper with an owl.
Also, many cultures believe that the Reaper is left-handed, so I decided that he should be the first in a series of famous left -handers

Sehr schön
Sehr gute Anleitung. Besonders liebe ich den Umhang mit dem Totenkopf. Meine Freundin hat sich einen Kumpel gewünscht, der ihr durch die Chemotherapie hilft.
