Product Details

This pattern is for varieties of mountain sheep farmed in Wales. There are these six for you to try. Each has a characteristic colouring. The patterns use either simple changes of colour or two-colour knitting so that you can pick one that meets your knitting experience. I have given them cute little ears, a nice fat tum and they stand up on their own (with a bit of coaxing!).
