(In the picture I used Sage Red Heart 4ply acrylic Yarn. )
If you will be crocheting the wings, talons, and eyes you will need more.
For an Owl exactly like that in the picture:
* Sage Yarn
* Chocolate Yarn
* Fiber Fill
* Tapestry Needle
* Google Eyes
* Hot Glue/gun
* Felt (nose)
The size depends on your needle size and yarn thickness. In this version I used a size G needle and 4ply acrylic yarn. It is 3 inches High and about about 2.5 inches stuffed.
Gauge is not important for this project.
Talons are crocheted in one piece and then hotglued or sewn to the bottom of the Owl.

What is Amigurmi?
is the Japanese art of knitting or crocheting small stuffed animals and anthropomorphic creatures. The word is derived from a combination of the Japanese words ami, meaning crocheted or knitted, and nuigurumi, meaning stuffed doll.
Amigurumi are typically cute animals (such as bears, rabbits, cats, dogs, etc.), but can include artistic renderings, and inanimate objects endowed with anthropomorphic features. Amigurumi can be either knitted or crocheted. In recent years crocheted amigurumi are more popular and more commonly seen.
Amigurumi are usually crocheted or knitted out of yarn. The simplest designs are worked in spirals. In contrast to typical Western crochet the rounds are not usually joined. They are also worked with a smaller size hook in proportion to the weight of the yarn in order to create a very tight-looking fabric without any gaps through which the stuffing might escape. Amigurumi are usually worked in sections and then joined, except for some amigurumi which have no limbs, only a head and torso which are worked as one piece. The extremities are sometimes stuffed with plastic pellets to give them a life-like weight, while the rest of the body is stuffed with fiber stuffing.
The pervading aesthetic of amigurumi is cuteness. To this end, typical amigurumi animals have an over-sized spherical head on a cylindrical body with undersized extremities.
