Flora & Fauna

Introducing the adorable stuffed animal family of mama sheep Flora and baby sheep Fauna! These charming creations are not only perfect for snuggling but also come dressed in their coordinating sweaters, complete with functional pockets. Flora's cozy cardigan features a delightful flower, while Fauna's charming pullover holds a mini sheep toy—both perfect touches that match their names!

Created with knitters of all skill levels in mind, most pieces of this pattern are worked in the round, making construction straightforward and enjoyable. The detailed design ensures that Flora's head and Fauna's mini sheep are stuffed before finishing, giving them a delightful three-dimensional shape. Their bodies, arms, and legs are carefully stuffed and sewn together, allowing for a beloved stuffed animal that will withstand countless hugs. The sweaters, designed with warmth and style, are worked from the bottom up, showcasing beautiful knitting techniques.

The pattern includes techniques that allow you to knit the sweater sleeves first, which are placed on holders and later joined to the body for the raglan shaping. This efficient method makes the knitting process seamless and allows for a professional finish to both sweaters.

Note: Measurements are approximate; finished sizes may vary slightly depending on gauge, stuffing materials, and personal knitting tension. Whether you're looking to create a special gift or simply want to add a touch of whimsy to your home, this delightful Flora and Fauna knitting pattern is the perfect choice for any passionate crafter!
