HOW TO MAKE THE OWL-SHAPED BACKPACK?

ABBREVIATIONS:

MACRAMÉ KNOTS:

• Lark's head knot
• Square knot
• Double half hitch knot

BASE OF THE BACKPACK:

• Chain 30 stitches.
• Row 1: Single crochet around the first row, making 2 single crochets in the same chain stitch at each end. Repeat the sequence in the next row. 
• Row 3: Crochet in a circular fashion, always with single crochet (without increasing at the ends). 
• Total of 22 rounds.

BACKPACK FLAP:

• On the last row of the backpack, use only one side and crochet over 30 chain stitches. 
• Make 4 rows of single crochet. 
• Chain 3, skip one chain space and close with a single crochet.

MACRAMÉ OWL:

• Cut 10 strips of 150 cm  

• Place a lark's head knot in each chain stitch of the backpack flap. 

• Make the next square knot  in a descending manner.  

• Border the square knot with 2 lines of double half hitch knots on both ends. 
• Leave space for the next knot, placing the beads that will be the owl's eyes at the ends and the half circle for its nose.  

• From the point of the nose, make another 3 lines of diagonal half hitch stitches on both ends.  
• Next, make a diamond-shaped lark's head knot.

• Border the square knots with double half hitch knots.
• Join all the cords with a square knot about 4 times.
