I tried to make this adorable apple cozy, but it was a big fail. My owl looks cute, but it is way too small to fit an apple inside. Sad! The pattern didn't list a gauge, so that was her bad. But, also, I knew fairly early into the project that it looked a little small and I never stopped and put a test apple inside, so it was my bad too. Anyway, here is my cute owl that will cozy up nothing:
