Flock of Sheep Throw

A very cosy and unique blanket/throw featuring a flock of sheep including a black one. Perfect for snuggling up on the sofa with your little one and would make a stunning feature in your home.

Easy to knit in stocking stitch and there are large coloured intarsia charts to follow for the sheep. A moss stitch border around the blanket is knitted as you go along and this avoids the edges curling.
