Balloo the sheep

This is a .pdf crochet pattern for Balloo the lamb or sheep. With this easy pattern you can make a soft and cuddly woolly friend.

Size: 6 inch/ 15,5 cm sitting when made with Istex Lett Lopi and hook E / 3,5 mm.

The instructions are written in US crochet terms. The pattern contains a list of materials, tools and accessories needed. Brand and colour numbers of the needed yarn. A clear and colour coded description of how to crochet and assemble the animal. Pictures and illustrations to help getting everything right.

Materials You need worsted weight yarn and an E US/3.5 mm crochet hook. You need two colours of yarn, light grey brown (1/4 of a 100 yard skein) and white (1/3). The quantities are estimates. For the eyes I’ve used 9 mm animal eyes. You will also need fibrefill and pellets for a bit of extra weight in the body (I use Hama beads) and a hard (pet)brush to get the white fur fuzzy. Lopi colour numbers: 0085 and 0051.
