Sawyer the sheep

Meet Sawyer, the cuddly sheep who adores big hugs and enchanting bedtime stories! This adorable knitted sheep is not only a delightful companion for children but also a comforting friend for anyone who loves snuggly toys. Crafted with care, Sawyer is made from a combination of James C Brett fluffy chunky yarn in a warm cream shade (requiring 2 x 50g balls) and Stylecraft Special DK in a charming grey (1 x 100g ball). His soft and fluffy texture makes him perfect for cuddling and playtime.

Sawyer is designed to be worked flat on 3.5 mm knitting needles, allowing for a straightforward and enjoyable knitting experience. Once completed, he is seamed at the back for a neat finish. To give Sawyer his endearing look, we’ve utilized 12mm safety eyes and added subtle facial features with a single strand of black DK yarn.

This cute little sheep measures 32 cm tall and 12 cm wide, making him an ideal size for children’s hands and perfect for display on a shelf or bed. To create Sawyer, a basic understanding of simple increases and decreases is all you need, making this pattern suitable for beginners eager to enhance their knitting skills.

Whether you are looking to make a thoughtful gift for a loved one or simply want to enjoy a new knitting project, Sawyer the cuddly sheep is sure to bring joy and comfort. Download our free or premium knitting pattern today and start creating your very own Sawyer. Happy knitting!
