What you need to know

These sweet sheep and bags of wool make great toys for kids!

Inspired by the classic nursery rhyme, this pair of sheep are accompanied by sacks of wool – three bags full, to be precise! The set is quick and easy to knit and uses simple stitches and basic shaping so is ideal for beginners. You can then embroider labels for the bags to finish: one for the master, one for the dame and one for the little boy (or girl) who lives down the lane. The sheep make great mascots on their own, while the sacks of wool could also make sweet lavender sachets.
