Knitting Pattern PDF.
The pattern includes a white Boucle sheep and two sheep in Fair Isle jumpers. The bodies are worked in a similar method. If you have ‘The Woolly Sheep’ pattern, you already have the body pattern for the Fair Isle sheep.

All parts are knitted flat and sewn up at the end. The jumper is one square piece with the colour work, and it is seamed on the tummy. The legs are attached over the jumper; hence it is not removable but easier to make. I used 2.75mm throughout, however, if you are a loose knitter, you may want to use a little finer needles for the ribbing band.
The project requires small amounts of yarn. Feel free to use your stash revering to the yarn information provided as guidance. Use 4-ply (fingering) weight yarn for the jumpers.
Finished size: 12cm
