Brenda the Sheep
KNITTING PATTERN DESIGN BY AMANDA BERRY
Brenda is a big and cuddly fluffy sheep, knitted in a fleecy boucle yarn. This is a larger toy, but using chunky yarns makes it quicker to knit.
Designed by Amanda Berry @fluffandfuzz, Brenda is knitted on single pointed needles (not in the round).
