If you are a needleworker and have mastered the art of weaving rubber bands, you can improve your skills and learn how to weave an owl out of rubber bands. The methods for making it are simple and easy to learn.

How to weave an owl on a loom?

Material needed: loom, hook, rubber bands (38 blue, 8 light blue, 4 orange, 4 black).

Place the machine with the open side of the post towards you so that the center row is further than the side rows. Start throwing elastic bands from above, gradually going down. Before weaving an owl with your own hands, remember that two elastic bands are almost always used.

So, weaving begins with the formation of the head. Take 2 blue elastic bands and stretch them from the first left column to the second middle row. Repeat these steps on the second row. Now take 2 rubber bands, put them on a pair of initial posts along the edges, and in the middle row - from the second to the third.

To make the eyes of an owl, you should put on 2 elastic bands from the second to the third column both on the left and on the right. Take 2 orange elastic bands and put them on the third and fourth columns in the middle.

We continue to formowlet's head. Throw on 2 more elastic bands in each row. To learn how to round the head and combine all the rows in the process of weaving an owl from elastic bands on the loom, string a pair of elastic bands diagonally to the center.

Torso weaving

Drape one elastic band diagonally from the last used column in the middle to the fifth column on both sides.

To form the belly, string 4 pairs of blue elastic bands in the middle row of the loom. To create wings, you need to pull 3 pairs of elastic bands in the left and right rows.

Wrap 1 orange rubber band around the hook three times. Then take 2 blue elastic bands and put a triple loop on them from the hook. With this design, connect the middle and side rows obliquely. Repeat the foot on the other side.

Now you can proceed to the main point in the question of how to weave an owl. On the middle column, pull and pry off the elastic band wound three times, remove 2 blue ones and throw them on the last column on the left, and the second pair on the right.

In the same way, we throw blue elastic bands forward. Crochet the lower elastic bands in all rows and throw them forward to the base of the body.

Now is the most difficult moment in the whole process of weaving an owl from elastic bands, since there are a lot of elastic bands on the central column, so it is very important to get the right pair. Crochet the top elastic bands, take out a pair of blue ones and place them on the corresponding peg. Do this with all three pairs of elastic bands.

Exactly the same waykeep paddling on. Remove 2 irises from the last middle column and transfer them to the last left column, then transfer the last 2 pairs to the last right one.

For convenience, make a loop. Pull the blue elastic through the eyelet and secure it with a knot. The weaving process is over, remove the finished owl figurine from the loom.

How to weave an owl on a slingshot?

Before you start weaving an owl from elastic bands on a slingshot, prepare the material - a slingshot, a hook, elastic bands (44 pink, 8 white, 4 yellow, 2 black).

This part will be formed from 3 chains. Wrap the pink elastic band around the right pin of the slingshot three times - it will fasten all the rows of the future torso. Move the elastic from three turns to the middle.

Move all parts of the weave to the left side.

Owl legs

Wrap four turns of 1 yellow rubber band around the free edge. After that, string 2 elastic bands of the main color again. Move the yellow rubber band to the middle. Move the lower pairs on the left side here too, it is important that the yellow one remains in the same place.

Weave 3 pairs of pink irises: put 2 things on the pins, and slide the bottom ones to the center. Next, transfer the entire weave to the right. Using your crochet hook, slip the first triple loop over the left pin. The second row of the body will be the tummy of the owl. Throw 2 white elastic bands on the slingshot, shift the triple on them from the left side. Do this with 5 pairs of white rubber bands.

Put the resulting workpiece on the right stake. Put it back on the leftpin the first triple rubber band. Fasten 2 pink elastic bands to the columns, transfer the triple to the center. Transfer everything from the left column to the right one and weave the second leg of the owl in the already known way.

After you have transferred the yellow elastic band to 2 pink ones, weave 3 more pairs of elastic bands of the same color. Unite the whole body. Put on 2 rubber bands and transfer all the details to the middle.

Head weaving

Pull 2 rubber bands on the pins and move the lower pairs on them from both sides. Weave a couple more, and then transfer the entire weave to the right side. On the left column, wrap 1 black elastic band 4 times. Then put on a pair of pink rubber bands and slide the black one over them.

Send 2 pairs of pink rubber bands from the right to the center, but with the black one to the left of them. Weave in 2 more elastic bands. Move all weaving to the right. Insert the hook into the elastic band at the base of the head and loop 2 yellow elastic bands over it. Pull the hook through the eyelet and slip the other end of the elastic over it.

Put a yellow rubber band on the left side of the slingshot, and then 2 pink ones on both sides. Then transfer the elastic to them on the left. Pull all the details on the right pin. Insert your hook into the loop at the base of your head and pull 2 pink elastic bands through it. Then lower the elastic bands to the left column. String 2 pink elastic bands on the slingshot and transfer to the center of the weaving of the elastic band on the left.

How to weave an owl out of rubber bands: eyes and ears

To weave the eye, move the top 2 elastic bands from the right column to the opposite side. On thein the vacant place, perform the already familiar weaving of the eye. Before you complete the weaving of an owl from rubber bands, you need to combine all the elements. Put on 1 pink elastic band and move all the weaving elastic bands onto it. Transfer one single elastic band to the next column, and tighten the bottom one into a loop.

Crochet 1 pink elastic band through the left loop of the head and make a knot. Repeat on the other side. Remove excess length with scissors.

How to weave an owl on a hook?

The figure of the owl will be made up of nine chains of seven loops connected at the top and bottom. This one is very easy to make, since only a hook is used in weaving an owl from rubber bands.

Take the main color elastic (purple) and circle around the hook three times. Then, with its help, pull 2 pieces through the triple loop. In this way, weave 7 pairs of lilac rubber bands.

Transfer this chain to an additional free hook. Weave another of the same owl detail using elastic bands of the same color. And release the working tool again.

The next chain will consist of a part of the owl's abdomen and an eye. Take 1 purple rubber band and wind it around the hook three times. Now, in the already known way, weave 3 pairs of pink elastic bands. Then weave in a couple of purples.

To weave an owl eye, take 3 white elastic bands, put on the hook, but do not pull through the loop. Hold the free edge of the rubber bands with your finger. On the hook, scroll 1 black elastic band four times. After that, you can put on white elastic bands.

Weave2 pairs of purple rubber bands. Transfer the finished part to the second hook. Drape and spin 1 purple elastic band on the hook three times. Braid 2 pairs of pink elastic bands and 1 purple one.

To make an owl's beak, take 2 orange rubber bands and weave them in. Thread 3 more pairs of purple rubber bands onto the hook. And again transfer the chain to an additional hook. Weave a chain of seven loops, in the weaving of which there is a part of the tummy and eyes of an owl. Release the work hook. Braid 4 more identical chains of 7 loops, use purple.

To connect all the details of the owlet, take 2 purple elastic bands and hook on the hook. Then move the finished chains onto them. After that, slip the other end of the elastic bands onto the hook and tighten into a loop, pulling one pair of elastic bands through the other.

Connect the bottom of the owl. Insert your hook into all the loops of the elastic bands with a triple turn. Throw 1 purple elastic band on the hook and move all the weaving from the hook onto it. Then secure with a knot again.

To make the owl's ears, insert your hook into the first pair of elastic bands on the top, in the chain where the eye is. Then bring under the entire loop in the next row, but already for the second pair. Put 3 pink elastic bands on the hook, pull under the loops and tighten into a knot. Trim the long ends with scissors. Make the same eye on the other side.

Wings

Insert the hook into the fourth pair of loops of two adjacent chains from the eyes. Put on a couple of pink elastic bands, then another, and tighten into a knot. Trim the ends of the loops.

Repeat the wing on the opposite side.

To complete and fully master how to weave an owl out of elastic bands, or rather, its paws, use 2 orange rubber bands. Hook under the first pair of pink elastic bands and the first pair of purple elastic bands in the next chain. Throw 3 rubber bands on the hook, then 1 orange knot. Pull long loops inwards.

Repeat the foot on the other side.

Make a ponytail on the two remaining back chains. Insert your hook into the third loop under one pair of elastic bands. Put on 2 pink elastic bands, then a couple more and tighten the knot again.

Using this weaving method, you will know how to weave a 3D owl out of rubber bands.

Creating these cute figurines is a very fun and creative process. Rubber owls can be used as key rings or backpack decorations. The owl will be a wonderful gift for friends.
